About Me

Laki Mera fell to earth from outposts around Europe and the UK in 2004. They have since finished recording their debut album 'clutter' to be released on ROLinc in March 2008. "Laki Mera are a very sophisticated band, built around the songwriting talent and exquisite vocals of Laura Donnelly, and featuring a quartet of highly accomplished musicians: Andrea Gobbi, pianist Keir Long, cellist Trevor Helliwell and percussionist Tim Harbinson. Their skill in mixing live playing with electronic wizardry not only marks them out as ideal signings to Paul Haig's ROL inc label, but also as significant followers of Radiohead's lead."Keith Bruce, The Herald
