sad films is the alter-ego of Salfordian singer-songwriter Dan Lucas. An open-secret superhero of sorts, borne out of a desire to shed the handcuffs of hibernation that modern life can have on one's creative impulses.
Inspired by the genre spanning artistry of R.E.M., David Bowie and Father John Misty alongside the story-telling of John Prine, Leonard Cohen and Alex Cameron, sad films will be bringing his debut EP 'Exchange Pleasantries' to The Castle Hotel for a special EP launch show.
Accompanied by his full band, sad films weaves a tapestry of vivid imagery from a life television raised, bringing you unapologetically into their world with playful lyrics dressed in high quality melodic fabric.
So come one, come all & keep your hands inside the vehicle at all times...
