About

White Lies are a post-punk trio from Ealing, west London, formed in 2007 by Harry McVeigh (vocals, guitar), Charles Cave (bass) and Jack Lawrence-Brown (drums). Their debut album To Lose My Life (2009) went straight to No. 1 in the UK, and the band has since released seven studio albums, earning a Q Award for Best New Band and a MOJO Breakthrough Award along the way. Their seventh record, Night Light (November 2025), marks a stylistic shift toward 1970s-influenced sounds - funk, disco and synth textures - recorded live at London's Church Studios.
