The Loft notched up an impressive list of firsts for Creation Records' artists back in the mid-80s. First Creation band on TV, first to hit the top of the indie singles chart, first to be invited on to a major UK tour and first Creation band to record a coveted BBC radio session - for Janice Long's Radio One show in 1984. Then they split up. Since that infamous onstage tragedy; splitting up mid-song, at the Hammersmith Palais in front of 3,000 people when on the verge of Big Time indie greatness, the band has reunited. Just as their status as one of the UK's most influential guitar bands of the 80s continues to grow and to influence a host of younger artists, and thirty nine years after that acrimonious split, it seemed the time was right to record their debut album. Last year, after a sell-out show at London's MOTH club and their heralded appearance at the Glas-Goes Pop festival, the group was invited by BBC 6 Music's 'Riley & Coe' to record its fourth BBC session, at Maida Vale's famous Studio 4. Within 6 months the session was rush released by Precious Recordings of London on glorious ten inch vinyl. Enter Hamburg based, Tapete Records, who, hearing rumours about new Loft material, snapped up the album and signed the band without hearing a single note. The ten song collection, 'Everything Changes, Everything Stays The Same', is released by Tapete on 14th March, 2025. The album was recorded in Hackney in August and produced by Dexys' Sean Read with the original Loft line up of Pete Astor (guitar /vocals) Andy Strickland (guitar), Bill Prince (bass) and Dave Morgan (drums). "Time has been kind to us I think; where once the world felt impossible and threatening, we seem to have learned to be more careful of each other and focus on playing together," says singer, guitarist and songwriter, Pete Astor. "We're having a blast. It's incredibly exciting to not only be setting out on tour again, but now with a brand new set of songs to play alongside some of our, ahem, 'greatest hits', says drummer, Dave Morgan. "The Loft has always been just the four of us and it's a real thrill to be writing and recording and playing across the UK with the band again. We're sounding better than ever...." says guitarist Andy Strickland
