    Description

    Following sold-out shows at Servant Jazz Quarters and The Islington, CURSE OF LONO will be launching their debut album 'SEVERED' at Water Rats on Thursday April 20th. 'SEVERED' comes out April 7th on Submarine Cat Records on 12" vinyl, CD and download.

    All profits from the gig will be donated to Barry Everitt's Cancer Fund. Barry, who ran The Borderline for many years, has been a long time supporter of both CURSE OF LONO and Felix and Neil's previous band, HEY NEGRITA. He has written articles about us, played us on the radio and promoted our gigs at The Borderline and Dingwalls.

    Support from THE MIDNIGHT BARBERS and KATE ELLIS.
