    I had the pleasure and delight of seeing TLDP open for Florence + The Machine in Cork. Aside from Florence of course, they held that auidenece in the palm of their hands from start to finish. Florence's influence and artistry was heavily evident and it was beautiful to see her inspiration and music be passed onto the next generation of female musicians. All in all, they were fantastic! I'll absolutely see them again.

    when i first listened to/watched the music video for my lady of mercy i thought "god, this is deeply bisexual". as a bi girl who was raised catholic and went to catholic school and all that i just related to it so deeply but i had no idea the song was exactly about that experience! i'm so in love with this band, i'm entranced by them

      My backstory is similar to yours, and a few of their tracks connect with me for whatever reason. It's earworms that trigger emotional responses I only occasionally find in music. Top shelf alt-pop. I hope they continue to dig and refine.

    saw them live, still haven't recovered. i'm so glad i got to see them in a small venue where they could play with the crowd. i got to hold Abigail's hand and talked to her and Georgia afterwards, they are beyond lovely in person too. i even ran into Emily in the bathroom. i'm glad i got to experience that before they sell out the huge venues where they won't be able to play with the audience as much!
    What Abigail said about the collective catharsis is 100% true, we were all just screaming at each other and losing our voices and it was the most magical thing

    As a queer girl from burnley, lancashire who was strictly raised within irish roman catholicism, I was immediately taken by TLDP's subversion of religious imagery and queer overtones, especially in nothing matters! Sometimes you don't even realise how much this hyper-specific (to me, anyway) representation matters to your own personal identity until you see it right there in front of you and get to bask in all the warmth and enjoyment it makes you feel 😌✨ I'm just so happy to be able to consider my self a fan of theirs at this stage and the anticipation of knowing we're about to witness their meteoric rise is just thrilling x

    I’ve just discovered this band following their appearance on Jools Holland. Instant awe! Every now and again (rarely) a band has such an emotional impact on me. Without doubt the lead singer is the star of the show. She’s amazing. Such presence. But what really got me was the feeling that the whole band were united as one. They all appeared to “grow” as each song developed. There was an obvious unity and friendship between them that really touched me. And above all what great music! Amazing songs and great musicians.

    This band is entertaining, passionate and unique. However there sets are so intense, cathartic, and generally negative, they may remain niche for the near future. Where is the victory, fun, or light ? There theater is +++.i have listened to 3 live shows. Kate Bush is a good comparison. Bowie had a repertoire that spand a greater observational and emotional range. SexPistols were niche, The Clash were mainstream. You can give it to THE MAN but think about expanding your pallet.
