Lugosi
Lugosi
Lugosi are a London five piece sitting musically between Rock and Goth and Dance. Avoiding the 10 minute epics of other bands in this genre Lugosi bring a melodic pop sensibility to the task of writing really gloomy songs about death and madness and loss and stuff.
Lugosi are:
Richard Parsons: vocals & harmonica
Lucia Hrda: vocals
Michael Baker: bass
Matthew Hill: Guitars & Drums
Greg Stapley Drums
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Strictly speaking Lugosi started this year in London as a dark side project for Monterey, our more pop oriented band. Monterey has been going for well over a decade.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We all live and play in London. Although the band draws people from Aberdeen, Edinburgh, the Home Counties and Slovakia.
We will be gigging around London this summer now that we have a adrummer.
