THE LOTTERY WINNERS - SINGLE REVIEW
The Lottery Winners - I Know |
The Lottery Winners - I Know
Release Date: Out Now
I first saw an early incarnation
of this band playing a cover of the theme from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air at a
wedding reception in Halifax. They were ace back then and now, a few line up
changes and a whole lot of gigs later, they are getting even better. Latest
single, 'I Know', has got indie epic written all over it as it features that
souring, uplifting melody that makes crowds invest as well as enough English
pop quirkiness to make them feel like the boys and girls next door. As they
sing "I fell in love with an idea" from a beaten up suburban semi,
you feel the sense of escape and yearning for release oozing from every pore
while the guitars jangle and the drums crash all around. The band name sucks,
it has to be said, but the video is wondrous and the song exists on its own, on
a far higher plane than most other English indie groups at the moment.
