La Loge formed in 2007 when Daragh Beirne drunkenly mentioned to Lynne Breivik that he was in the market for a vocalist. Rehearsals duly commenced and, once the hangovers cleared, the intrepid duo realised that they might be on to something. The first year was spent writing and experimenting, gradually evolving a sound by pilfering their favourite bits from other peoples’ stuff. This they accomplished by piling all their cds on the floor and smashing them up with a hammer of pure enthusiasm before sticking the pieces back together in no particular order with the sellotape of inspiration.

The Philosophy

Musically, whether on bluesy piano or acoustic guitar driven numbers, or more noisy meanderings, the guiding principle of La Loge’s music is stew. A good song should be like a good stew. Simple and satisfying with plenty of meaty bits, but not to be consumed without first donning a napkin.

What’s it sound like?

It’s a plinky plonky bluesy punky affair.
