Race The Loser

Lau, modern folk music's most innovative band, return with their third album Race the Loser. The trio's captivating live and studio performances have seen Lau pick up three consecutive BBC Folk Awards for Best Group.

Produced by Tucker Martine (Sufjan Stevens, The Decemberists, Laura Viers, R.E.M.), Lau are brilliant musicians, thrilling performers, free-thinking visionaries, and all-round good chaps. Small wonder Lau are regarded as the epicenter of the new folk boom. They've got shelves groaning with awards, a forest's worth of ecstatic reviews, and breathless plaudits from excited audiences in various outposts of the world ringing in their ears to prove it.
