LUFT live in London

Experience LUFT live on June 29th

LUFT is scheduled to perform at The Bull & Gate in Kentish Town, London on June 29th, 2026. The band creates music generally categorized as post-punk, drawing influence from bands like Joy Division and The Fall, characterized by driving basslines, angular guitar work, and introspective lyrical content. They have released two EPs to date, gaining attention within the UK independent music scene for their energetic live performances and atmospheric soundscapes.

The Bull & Gate, located on Kentish Town Road, holds a significant place in London’s musical history. Originally a traditional pub, it became a prominent venue during the new wave and post-punk eras of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Notably, it hosted early performances by bands such as The Smiths, U2, and Madness – acts that would later achieve mainstream success.

Throughout its history, the venue has maintained a reputation for supporting emerging artists and fostering a close connection with London's alternative music community. While undergoing periods of closure and refurbishment over the years, The Bull & Gate reopened in 2023 following extensive renovations aiming to preserve its intimate atmosphere while upgrading facilities.
