Lorelei are no more . . . Shock! Horror! Gazooks! Yet the show must go on!

Since coming second in the Radio 210/ Hexagon Band Competition last year the group had many pressures with recording and playing and a dissastisfaction began to grow with the QUALITY of the music; a radical change has meant that the band is now a four piece, firmly led by singer/writer Lou Spyrou, playing with subtlety and taste rather than losing Louis’ excellent melodies in a shower of decibels. You can see them at the Target on June 25 playing a charity gig for The International Year of the Child.
