Laish

Danny Green formed the band Laish in Brighton in 2008 and became part of the Willkommen Collective, the Brighton alternative folk scene which included the bands Sons of Noel and Adrian (which Green was also a member of from 2008-2014) and The Leisure Society. Laish have released two records, their eponymous debut (2010, Willkommen Records) and Obituaries (2013, Folkwit Records), both recorded by Green at his home. Both received much critical acclaim, with radio plays including BBC6 Music (Marc Riley, Tom Ravenscroft, Gideon Coe, Chris Hawkins), BBC Radio 3’s The Late Junction, BBC Scotland (Roddy Hart) and Amazing Radio (Dani Charlton).

Now based in London, Green’s move to the capital, after a life immerged in the Brighton music scene, proved a motivation and inspiration.

Danny Green has had an impressive independent career performing both solo and with a full band as Laish. Prominent shows include some of the UK’s most prestigious venues: The Union Chapel, The Roundhouse, Barbican, St Pancras Old Church and Kings Place, and extensive showcases at festivals including End of the Road Festival and Cambridge Folk, sharing stages with Grizzly Bear, Beach House, Richard Dawson, Martha Wainwright, Rozi Plain, Wave Pictures and Jason Lytle.
