We’re Lost In Music’s 2021 in Review

Despite the first half of the year continuing to see gigs and events postponed or cancelled, the second half has been wonderful. Our world has been filled once more with live performances and music-enhanced experiences. Our hearts have been full.

Wednesday 14th July 2021 saw us return to our first gig since before the pandemic. It had been 493 lonnnnngggggg days since we last saw Jack Garratt perform in the eartH theatre hall…and when we saw him step onto the stage at Hackney Church, tears brimmed. It was a magical evening and so fitting that it was delivered by Jack – he was our last gig, and now our first.

Next up was ‘Freedom Day’ and c. 500 people crammed into sweaty PowerHaus to watch White Lies perform. It was almost like nothing had happened and we hadn’t spent months being prevented from doing just that. More gigs followed, as did the return of festivals and, other than a Covid Pass here or there, our gig calendar returned to something more familiar. We could not be more grateful.

And so, our 2021 highlights feature a lot more live-music than last year! See for yourself…

We’re Lost In Music’s 2020 in Review

What is usually one of our favourite activities to complete has been something we’ve been putting off…it’s a bit heartbreaking to look back at a year of events that didn’t happen 😭

Now we’ve done it, those gigs we were lucky enough to attend in the first few months feel almost a lifetime ago. A memory that will forever remain with us is sitting in the haunting theatre hall of eartH in Dalston waiting to see Jack Garratt showcase his new album after time away. It was just days before the reality of the pandemic hit but, looking back, the signs were already there that everything was about to change.

While 2020 has been difficult for everyone for a multitude of different reasons, it was really tough having such a huge part of our lives disappear overnight. Be it the gigs, the festivals, the venues, the first times, the repeat occasions, the new discoveries, the favourites – each new cancellation or postponement announcement disappoints as much as the first did.

We’ve moved from a world of in-person experiences to watching events play out online – while it has been incredible to see so many artists and promoters embrace digital, we are counting down the days until we can be back in a sweaty room or field, surrounded by all the other people starved of their live music fix this year, united in our love for music. With so little support given to the industry, please do whatever you can to play your part in helping save our scene 🙏🏻

Until then, here are our 2020 highlights…

We’re Lost In Music’s 2016 in Review

Hello!

In a year where we have lost so many greats, one thing is clear: while personal tastes and beliefs may differ, there is one consistent factor that unites us all – music.

Let us all be thankful for the impact and contributions of those figures who have made musical history – David Bowie, Glenn Frey, George Martin, Prince, Leonard Cohen, Rick Parfitt, George Michael, to name just some of those lost this year – and hope that there are no more announcements in the few days before the year is out. These figures have shaped music as we know it today and who knows who, if anyone, will go on to make equal or greater impacts.

While we may not have seen the next David Bowie (not suggesting there could ever be a ‘next’) perform live this year, this does not mean we have not witnessed some tremendous talent. Here is the summary of our 2016 in music…

Jack Garratt – definitely not just a Phase

Jack Garratt

Under The Bridge, London (18th April 2016)

We feel like we arrived a bit late to the Jack Garratt party – hearing a lot of hype about Jack we booked tickets for his November gig at Eventim Apollo and, having done that, thought we better give him a listen when his debut album, Phase, was released in February of this year…

And what an album it turned out to be! We’ve been pretty much unable to stop listening to it ever since and have been desperate to see him play in a small venue as we’d heard good things about his live performances. Last night it happened – we managed to get tickets to see him play at Under The Bridge, a 500 capacity venue in West London. We were totally blown away!
