Powerhouse art-rock, cello-core, Lung, consists of Kate Wakefield, a classically trained opera singer and cellist, and drummer Daisy Caplan, formerly the bassist of Foxy Shazam. Fierce, ethereal, and heavy as hell, Lung rocks with the intensity of early grunge, layered with sinister undertones. Described as “loud, dissonant, innovative, and fearless” (Fair Shakes and Just Dessert). Wakefield runs her cello through distortion pedals and big amps, and Caplan pounds out earthquaking beats on epic horn-shaped, vintage drums. A relentless touring machine, the duo has played over 800 shows across North America and Europe, on bills with Brainiac, Screaming Females, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Big Business and so many more.

 

“The band’s sound crosses many styles and could be better described by feelings rather than genres. Metal and classical music may not seem like a natural pairing, but singer Kate Wakefield’s haunting and professionally trained operatic voice floats above her fervent cello playing alongside Daisy Caplan’s intense and hypnotic drumming.”

— Katie Pinter, WOUB Public Radio
