Sounds Like: Mike."Lucas Arundell is fast establishing himself as one of this city’s finest experimental songwriters. The melodies are never obvious the methods never twee. Lucas sets his vision adrift on a raft of quality influences (think Elliott Smith fronting Sigur Ros) and brings it home with a very healthy passion for music. DIY indie pop at its best!!
