INDIE rockers Razorlight are to headline Smoked & Uncut at Lime Wood in the New Forest this summer.

The band were formed in London in 2002 around lead singer Johnny Borrell.

They quickly became one of the key guitar bands of the following decade, selling 4 million albums, playing sold out arena tours and headlining festivals.

Their debut album, ‘Up All Night’, was released in the UK in 2004 reaching number three in the UK Album Chart.

They won the NME Best New Band award in 2005. The first album included a hoard of immaculate singles ‘’Rip It Up’, ’Golden Touch’, ‘Stumble and Fall’ and ‘Vice’ as well as ‘Somewhere Else’, which reached number two on the UK singles chart.

The hiatus from Razorlight came to an end in 2017 when Johnny began trying songs with guitarist David Ellis, formerly of Babeshadow. David joined the new line up and a reinvigorated band started working on songs for a fourth album proper. By late 2017 they knew they had a wildly fresh tracklisting for an album and entered the studio with up and coming Italian producer Tomasso, continuing to recording through to Feb 2018.

With their best record for years in the bag, Razorlight are set to confirm their place as one of the most compelling, maverick guitar bands to have emerged out of the UK.
