Lucky Soul are not just a six-piece pop group from South East London, they are a bag of contradictions. Their intricate, insanely addictive pop seems effortless but is painstakingly, meticulously crafted; and even when the second album A Coming of Age seems to speak of sweet, uncomplicated love, you’ll find it to be actually doused in heartache and existential angst. Think of the barbed lyrics of a latter day Brian Wilson run through a magpie-esque pop sensibility taking in Stax, Motown, Edith Piaf, Dexy’s Midnight Runners, The Arcade Fire, Scott Walker…

Ruffa Lane was set up by Lucky Soul and friend and ex farmer Nick Woodhead in a small town in North Yorkshire as a way of releasing their own music on their own terms. Since relocating to South East London, the label has become something of an international success story, selling 50,000 copies of Lucky Soul’s debut album ‘The Great Unwanted’ worldwide, including a top 10 release in Japan, and giving the O2 Arena its first ever live performance. In recent months they’ve expanded their roster fourfold to include two Swedish beat combo’s ‘Napoleon’ and ‘Montt Mardie’ and SE London alt-country troubadours ‘Grantura’.
