GALLERY
“Lane’s delivery is distinctive with its clarity and raw emotion, expressing a delicious romantic yearning
tempered with a grounded reality. The effect is that of a female-fronted The National or James with that
sense of heightened melancholia and pop melody, with a brush of Lily Allen or Sharon Van Etten” -
