WU LYF
About This Event
WU LYF shares a bill with Lauren Auder at Elsewhere, bringing the Manchester-rooted project's "heavy pop"—massed volume, big hooks and weathered atmosphere—to a New York room. Auder, a British-French singer-songwriter and producer whose baroque-pop arrangements and 2023 album The Infinite Spine emphasize structure and vocal precision, appears alongside the group that returned in 2025 and has a second album slated for April 2026.
About the Artists
WU LYF
WU LYF is a Manchester-rooted rock project that first surfaced in 2008, keeping a low public profile and letting the music circulate with minimal explanation. After an early run that ended in the early 2010s, the group returned in 2025 with a second album, *A Wave That Will Never Break*, slated for April 2026.
Lauren Auder
Lauren Auder is a British-French singer, songwriter, and producer whose work moves between rock-pop songcraft and classical-leaning arrangement, often tagged as baroque pop. Raised in southern France after early years in England, she first built credits producing for underground rap artists before releasing her own EPs and the 2023 album *The Infinite Spine*.
