Laki Mera
Laki Mera - The Proximity Effect out now, upcoming shows, Dermot O'Leary session & Fool video

Jul 19th, 2011

"Wonderful debut album....a dense folktronic architecture with an intricacy and subtlety that recalls the Blue Nile, Cocteau Twins and Portishead....a ghostly wall of sound of extraordinary emotional power" - The Sunday Times, 4*

"This is how it should be done...It’s the most confident debut I’ve heard in a good while. It has the calm authority of musicians who know exactly what they want to do, are prepared to work stupid hours to realise and perfect it" Drowned in Sound 

Available from the Just Music store, as well as from iTunesAmazon and all good music shops
