Dear Life, live @ Smiths Spitalfields

Dear Life, is a melancholy Indie band from London fronted by two spectacle-wearing male and female orientals.

Infusing 90s trip hop production with the sound of indie perspiration, Dear Life,'s (yes, with a comma) music comes out dark and atmospheric, with a whole lotta angst.

The songs are philosophical too, seeking answers to questions such as : "What do you do with a discarded woman?", and "Why do boys make such terrible girlfriends?".

Trendy Spitalfields market may not seem like the obvious place for live music but they always like to offer a fresh perspective. HOT VOX’s Friday night companion is a bit more Bond than Band with Cocktails aplenty. However, don’t let that fool you. Expect the same quality music just with a twist of lemon!
