LaKyoto formed in early 2017, quickly creating a buzz and making a name for themselves in their hometown of Edinburgh. The band create electronic pop music with stomping drums, pounding sub-bass and soaring, euphoric vocals. In a short space of time, LaKyoto have become renowned for their high-energy and exciting live shows, as well as their distinct pop sound, likened by many to artists such as Everything Everything, The 1975, Prides and The Wombats. Upon the release of their highly anticipated singles, Runaway and Heart Beats Loud, the band have continued to grow and aim to use recent success in festivals such as XpoNorth as a platform on which to build their ever-growing fanbase.
