Lazzy Lung "Swim The Tide" album
Lebanese contemporary, alternative-rock band
"While the last ten years have seen a surge in popularity for electronic and techno-infused sounds, simultaneously they have witnessed the rise of indie folk-rock bands, namely Lebanon's Lazzy Lung. Founded initially as a solo-project in 2006 by Canadian-Lebanese Allan Chaaraoui (the band's lead singer and guitarist), Lazzy Lung developed into a four-member band to release three unsigned albums, all the while touring the region with the likes of Atlanta-based outfit The Black Lips. More recently, Lazzy Lung have been performing acoustic shows at smaller, more intimate venues to gear up for their latest unsigned release - a folk, indie-rock record by the name of Swim The Tide."
