Ahead of their appearance as part of Rising Festival at Max Watts Thursday 15th June – Real Lies join Lili Joy for a mix and chat.

Here for RISING, Real Lies are vocalist Kevin Lee Kharas and musical mastermind Patrick King. Kevin Lee’s half-sung, half-spoken narration has a rambling passion that’s been compared to Springsteen, while his deadpan wit has been likened to Jarvis Cocker. He’ll wax poetic about missed rent, instant barstool chemistry, working up a sweat to chart-toppers, and staying up late with The Fall.

Meanwhile, Patrick King evokes the euphoria of Underworld and the Pet Shop Boys smudged with the grime of Burial. One for the dawn-lit ravers, and hopeless romantics.
