Get ready to be swept away by the brooding melodies and introspective storytelling of Larusta, the London-based songwriter behind Larusta & The Dead Dogs. Hailing from a dead-end town in southern Germany, Larusta’s journey has been anything but conventional. After a period of wandering through various musical projects and cities, his move to London ignited a fresh chapter in his life. Now, he’s found both his voice and his audience, delivering what he calls “Dark Lyrical Alternative” – a sound that blends raw emotion, poetic narratives, and atmospheric rock. Last month, Larusta released his new single “Scattered”, offering a taste of what’s to come on his highly anticipated debut album The Life You Save May Be Your Own, due out November 15th, 2024. Born out of lockdown isolation, “Scattered” captures themes of chaos, transformation, and resilience, set against a backdrop of Wurlitzer keys, cello, and driving rhythms. It’s the kind of track that stays with you long after the final chord fades.
Catch Larusta live at ART Stalker in Berlin on November 14th to celebrate the album’s release and experience his powerful, introspective performance firsthand.
