📚 English Teacher @Lost Lake Lounge

One of the UK’s most exciting new bands is somehow playing Lost Lake—and we’re not questioning it. English Teacher makes sharp, cerebral post-punk with real emotional weight, pairing deadpan wit with sprawling, unpredictable arrangements. Catching them in a room this small feels like a lucky glitch in the system.

> “English Teacher sound like the future of British guitar music—angular, anxious, and unafraid.”

• 🔹 Who They Are: A Leeds-based four-piece blending post-punk, spoken word, and moody art-rock with a literary twist.
• 🔹 If You Like: Dry Cleaning, black midi, Yard Act, Porridge Radio
• 🔹 Essential Track: “The World’s Biggest Paving Slab” — part anthem, part existential spiral.
• 🔹 Must-Listen Album: This Could Be Texas — layered, poetic, and quietly devastating.
• 🎤 Why This Show? They’ve already played Glastonbury and sold out UK tours—seeing them in a room that fits 100 is a rare kind of magic.
• 📍 Meetup Plan: Meet at Middleman at 6:30 PM for pre-show drinks, then walk over to Lost Lake for a front-row view you won’t get again.
• 🎟️ Tickets: $18 – get one before it sells out (it will)

Q: What's the RSVP policy?
A: RSVP etiquette is crucial! No-shows can throw off the vibe of the event, so we kindly ask that you shoot the host a message or un-RSVP before the event starts if you can't make it. Two no-shows may result in removal from the group.

Q: How can I support?
A: Did you know that your humble organizers pay about $360 a year to bring events to you on Meetup? A tiny annual donation from you is all it takes to keep the events coming. Suggested donation is $5/event or $20 for unlimited events. Just send a Venmo/Paypal to me @mandirao (or ask me for Zelle). Couldn't do it without you!
