 Lunatraktors - Rigs of the Times
Release Date: April 30, 2021
Length: 03:42
Genre: Broken Folk / Protest Folk
Origin: Margate, England

Clair Le Couteur and Carli Jefferson are the Lunatraktors. They were raised Essex, met in Prague, and moved to Kentish Margate. Since 2017, the duo has steadily released music located somewhere between the dynamics and harmonies of Folk, the darkness of Post Punk, the bright colours of queer cabaret, and a progressive Punk Rock attitude. They call their style Broken Folk, which to my ears is related to Protest Folk. Hence, I am somewhat reminded of some of my all-time favourite artists: Devon's Protest Folk / Punk band Crazy Arm, Fürth's Folk Noir bard Mäkkelä, and German street artists Milch & Blut.


"Rigs of the Times" is the second ex ante single to the new album "The Missing Star" which will be out in June. The song is a sober status indicator of our contemporary times: BREXIT, COVID, propaganda, hatred, and the impression that "Honesty is a Fashion".
These facts are conveyed by sweetest dark Folk music. Lunatraktors present themselves strongly, and not willing to give up. "Rigs of the Times" is a guarantee for goosebumps and a memerizingly gorgeous song increasing the hype for "The Missing Star".
