LoneLady

LIVE: LONELADY – 07/04/2022

– The White Hotel, Manchester – I’ve somehow gotten this far without ever seeing LoneLady (aka Julie Campbell) live, and I’m not sure how this happened. I’ve been a fan since her superb second album ‘Hinterland’ from 2015, a brooding, funky, post-punk masterpiece that seemed to reflect the stark, post industrial wastelands still found in […]
ALBUMS Kendrick Lamar – To Pimp a Butterfly The album that the modern world has been waiting for. The major records to have captured the public consciousness in recent years have been either self-important ego riots (hello Kanye) or tepid retro-pop (Adele, Taylor Swift).

2015 END OF YEAR – MAX PILLEY

2015 END OF YEAR – RICHARD WALKER

ALBUMS Sufjan Stevens – Carrie & Lowell Hands down the most beautiful album of the year. Sufjan’s first album since the bombast of Age of Adz is a rumination on the death of his mother, and it’s one of the most moving collection of songs I’ve ever heard. I struggled to get through it without […]
ALBUMS Chastity Belt – Time to Go Home The Seattle band’s second LP is a brilliant testament to drunken mayhem and pondering self-reflection. Sounding a little like an all female version of DIIV. It is lyrically very open to confronting past regrets whilst, at the same time, feeling sedated to them and looking forward. Chiming […]

END OF YEAR 2015 – BOBBY COLCOMBE

The video for Bunkerpop features LoneLady, aka Julie Campbell, exploring the bunker, a brutalist structure built during World War One and used in World War Two on Hull’s coastline. It was directed by actor, theatre director and filmmaker […]
– SOUP KITCHEN, MANCHESTER – There was huge disappointment for me, almost 5 years ago – Manchester’s own Julie Ann Campbell, aka LoneLady, withdrew from a support slot for Chris Cunningham due to illness. Her superb debut album ‘Nerve Up’, released on Warp in 2010, had piqued my interest enough to leave me wanting more. It’s been a long wait. […]
