Hi-res packshot
The Chiara L’s are the brainchild of self-styled ‘Pop-Bitch’ front-woman, Chiara Lucchini. Many hazy nights in Leeds have seen her united with cohorts in chaos Jonny Lee Hart [Guitar], Tim Oldfield [Bass] Dan Stretton [Drums] and Emma Quick [Synths]. After only a short stint on the Leeds scene playing tight and engaging sets at all of the city’s top indie venues (Brudenell, Faversham, Cockpit et al), the band have amassed a devout following.

Recent dates have seen them venture to the country’s capital to be once again brilliantly received at The Buffalo Bar, The Dublin Castle and The Old Blue Last. Their relentless touring schedule has not gone unnoticed and along with earning them significant column inches in the international indie press, covetable support slots with Shy Child, The Organ, The Whip, Ipso Facto and Vincent Vincent and the Villains it has also seen them acknowledged with the well-deserved accolade of Steve Lamacq’s ‘Demo of the Week’.

Now the band are set to release their debut double A-side single ‘Knives’ / ‘Kate’s Kid’ as a digital download through This Is Fake DIY Records on Monday 10th December. Not one but two launch parties are planned; 30th of November at The Cockpit, Leeds and the 12th of December at The Old Blue Last, London. 2008 will see Chiara and her new-wave fashonistas continue to tour the UK extensively, recruiting new followers of their biting, angular music and wonderfully honest lyrics.
