Scottish alt-folk band Lacuna recently dropped their new single “Creature Comforts” just in time for Mother’s Day.
An ode to the bonds of motherhood and the changing seasons, the single is set against a bed of hazy folk-rock, yearning strings, and warming melodies. Imbued with nostalgia and heartfelt introspection, it’s a gorgeous release that not only marks the return of brighter days, but also an exciting new chapter for the talented outfit.
Talking about the release, front person Emily Beckwith says, “This is one of my all time favourite songs we’ve done, it’s about the day to day of working through the dark mornings and nights before the light starts to creep back in. Also how much I’ve seen my Mum in myself over the past few years. I’m now the same age she was when she had me.”
Born from a wild night at Glasgow’s Slouch Bar, the folk-rock sextet has grown within a tight-knit circle of friends and musicians. Since their formation, the band has consistently released beautifully written and produced music, earning attention from BBC Introducing and The Scottish Alternative Music Awards with their haunting folk-rock style.
“Creature Comforts” is in stores now.
