DHP Presents:UNCLE LUCIUS Second chances are rare in rock ‘n’ roll. Most bands only get one shot at the brass ring, and once theopportunity passes by, it’s gone forever. Maybe that’s why Uncle Lucius sounds like a band reborn on Like It’s The Last One Left, a catharticcomeback album that reunites the platinum-selling group — and pumps new blood into its roster —after a five-year hiatus. Written and recorded in the band’s hometown of Austin, Texas, Like It’s TheLast One Left isn’t just a return to form; it’s an expansion, bolstering Uncle Lucius’ mix of amped-upAmericana and greasy roots-rock with string arrangements, adventurous production, and the sharpestsongwriting of the group’s career. + Sam Paul

Their song 'keep the wolves away' went gold after turning up in yellowstone, which pulled the austin band off a hiatus and back onto the road. They play southern rock built on roots-country bones: slow-burning grooves, organ, twin guitars and a weathered lead vocal. The latest album is 'open eyes, broken heart', and a 20th anniversary tour brings them across the atlantic in 2026.

A brighton band who put bright surf guitar against hazy dream pop and a wash of shoegaze. Their debut ep is out in september 2026 and gets a launch show at the folklore rooms, with the set built for the immersive end of that sound.
