Lyford

North Lincolnshire

Lyford are an indie five piece from Scunthorpe whose classic, raw indie rock is rooted in working class culture, small town angst and off-kilter charm. Their playful and often talk-sung lyrics about late nights, boredom and love have that “big feelings about small moments” vibe that seeks to connect rather than conquer. Lyfords original indie rock sound bringing the raw, psychedelic spirit of the 90s crashing back to life. Fuelled by swirling guitars, driving rhythms, and a groove that refuses to sit still, their sound is a direct shot of British guitar bands from The Who to Stone Roses and from Oasis to Arctic Monkeys. Lyford grew out of a long musical journey that started in the 90s when guitarist Andy played extensively across the UK, working closely with other bands and recording artists along the way. In the early 2000s, he stepped away from playing live and the break lasted nearly 15 years, until a one-off birthday gig with a group of friends reignited the spark.
