Lanterns on the Lake can't do much wrong as far as I'm concerned, as well as their spellbinding debut full-length 'Gracious Tide, Take Me Home', a real album of the year contender the North-East sextet have contributed a track to a compilation CD on this months MOJO magazine (and also includes Emmy The Great covering "All Those Years Ago"). The track, a cover of the George Harrison penned Beatles track "Long Long Long", it's beguiling in its beauty too, as ever masterfully produced, adding their signature cinematic soundscapes and heart-tugging emotion awash in achingly gorgeous vocals and sweeping strings to the pensive track that (and I'm no Beatles guru) is perhaps one the Harrison's most underrated tracks.
Lanterns November date at The Lexington has sold out already so the band have announced a new year date at Cargo, 12th January 2012, you can get tickets for that here and see the rest of the November tour dates over on the Lanterns on the Lake website.
