Landshapes
Landshapes is a British band formed in 2012, known primarily for its effects-heavy psychedelic alternative rock. They released their debut full-length album Rambutan on indie record label Bella Union in 2013 and their second album, Heyoon, in May 2015. The group consists of Heloise Tunstall-Behrens (vocals, violin) and Luisa Gerstein (vocals, ukulele) with Jemma Freeman (guitar, vocals) and Dan Blackett (drums, vocals). They were formerly known as Lulu and the Lampshades.
Band members Tunstall-Behrens and Gerstein are known for their revival of the 1931 Carter Family song "When I'm Gone" as "Cups".[1]
While Landshapes was on hiatus, Gerstein and Tunstall-Behrens remained active with Deep Throat Choir,[2] releasing an album on Bella Union in 2017,[3] and now perform with Blood Moon Project.[4] Freeman formed Jemma Freeman and the Cosmic Something, releasing a debut EP in 2017[5] and a debut album in 2019.[6]
