WU LYF 2026 Tour

British quartet WU LYF reformed last year and this week they shared a new 11-minute long song, “Tib St. Tabernacle,” they also announced their first North American tour dates in 14 years. Sonic Boom (formerly of Spacemen 3) produced the song. WU LYF (World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation) was an indie rock band from Manchester, known for their unique blend of heavy pop. Formed in 2008, the band consisted of lead singer Ellery Roberts, Tom McClung, Evans Kati and Joe Manning. They released singles and their album “Go Tell Fire To The Mountain”. In their lyrics, Roberts expressed his disdain for capitalist society and war, while celebrating nature and freedom.

In 2025 the band shared the new song “A New Life Is Coming,” their first single in 14 years, and played some shows around the UK and EU.

The critically acclaimed band WU LYF broke up in 2012 after releasing their only album, 2011’s “Go Tell Fire to the Mountain”. Frontman Ellery James Roberts went on to form LUH (aka Lost Under Heaven) with Ebony Hoorn. LUH split up last year, making space for the WU LFY reunion.

The band’s upcoming tour dates only mention dates and cities, exact venues have yet to be announced.

Manchester’s own Francis Lung, the nom de plume of former Wu Lyf member Tom Mclung, releases his new single his debut release for Memphis Industries, where he joins the likes of the go! team, poliça, field music, it comes with a gorgeously intricate self-produced video.

Following on from the home-recorded volumes 1 + 2 eps, which contained titbits written during his time in Wu lyf, sees Francis Lung return with a bigger, more expansive sound. recorded at low four studios with brendan williams on production duties (Dutch Uncles, Go Go penguin) it’s a baroque pop rocket that signals Francis Lung’s new found ambitions.

Beyond stoked to tell you that ex member of Wu lyf  Francis Lung just signed to Memphis Industries and my first single ‘I Wanna Live In My Dreams’ is out today! , please put your hands together for Francis Lung, the latest addition to the Memphis industries cannon!.

The video was crafted over four months by Francis and follows a young boy who falls asleep and turns into his dream alter-ego ‘ghostface’, as Francis explains:

“Ghostface is a character I’ve been drawing for years, but I’ve never been quite sure why. i thought it would be nice to give him some purpose by creating this story about him. I’ve never made anything like this before but for some foolish reason i thought it would be a good idea to spend four months of my life learning how to animate. it’s a combination of stop motion, keyframe and hand-drawn animation and it’s made up of thousands upon thousands of frames. I nearly pulled out all my hair making it.”

Francis Lung is currently putting the finishing touches to his debut album, expect to hear more from Francis Lung very soon.
