INTERVIEW: MARK EMMERSON of THE LUCID DREAM discusses their fifth album, THE DEEP END

Carlisle’s The Lucid Dream release their amazing fifth album, ‘The Deep End’ on 30th April on Holy Are You Recordings.

Following on from 2018’s album Actualisation, the new album builds upon the acid house influences of the former but ventures into many new paths. Hip hop, techno, drum ‘n’ bass and other ‘genres’ sneak into the creative palette whilst also staying true to the band’s mantra of throwing the rule book out of the window, as far as ‘boundaries’ are concerned.

Mark Millar sat down with vocalist Mark Emmerson to talk about the album, musical influences and guilty pleasures. Watch the interview with Mark – BELOW:
