----------------------------------------
FOR WU LYF, REFORMATION BEGAN WITHOUT CEREMONY IN IRREGULAR JAM SESSIONS HELD AT BOUND &amp; INFINITY, AN ESOTERIC BOOKSHOP PERCHED CROWLIKE ABOVE THE REVELRY OF MANCHESTER’S INFAMOUS TIB ST.

IT WAS HERE—IN THE LIMINAL SPACE BETWEEN THE CEREBRAL AND THE CARNAL— THAT TIB ST. TABERNACLE WAS CONCEIVED: A SIMMERING CRUCIBLE OF MYTHIC IMAGINATION - A PIRATE UTOPIA THAT RAIDS CONSENSUS REALITY AND DISAPPEARS BEFORE IT CAN BE CAPTURED, MAPPED, OR SOLD.

A SPRAWLING ELEVEN-MINUTE RITE OF A SONG, IT REJECTS PERMANENCE AND POSSESSION, CONTINUALLY EVOLVING THROUGH THE RISE AND FALL OF COLLECTIVE CATHARSIS TOWARDS A HARROWING FINALE WHERE THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN THE CONGREGATION DISSOLVE INTO THE DEMOCRACY OF TRANCE.

WHERE ONCE WU LYF EMBODIED THE RESTLESS ENERGY OF YOUTHFUL DEFIANCE, THEY NOW CHANNEL SOMETHING MORE REFINED— AN ENDURING FLAME TEMPERED BY THE HUMBLING OF TIME.

THEIR CREATIVE PHILOSOPHY HAS EVOLVED FROM REACTIVE PROTEST INTO SOMETHING CLOSER TO WU WEI: EFFORTLESS ACTION, FLOWING AROUND SYSTEMS OF CONTROL RATHER THAN CONFRONTING THEM HEAD-ON, AND IN DOING SO, INSPIRING A RECLAMATION OF POTENTIAL AND PRESENCE.

FROM THE BEGINNING, THEIR WORK CARRIED A SOCIAL VISION— AN UNDERCURRENT OF RESISTANCE AGAINST THE ENCROACHING SPECTACLE. IN AN AGE WHERE AUTHENTIC ARTISTIC EXPRESSION IS INCREASINGLY DEVALUED, DROWNED BENEATH AI-GENERATED CONTENT AND EXPLOITATIVE PLATFORM ECONOMIES, WU LYF STANDS APART. WHAT MAY ONCE HAVE SEEMED IDEALISTIC NOW STANDS AS NECESSITY.

THE SAME APPLIES TO LIVE. IN 2025 WU LYF’S RETURN TO THE STAGE WAS MET WITH OVERWHELMING DEMAND. A SERIES OF INTIMATE RESIDENCIES SOLD OUT IN SECONDS. 3 NIGHTS IN MANCHESTER. 3 NIGHTS IN LONDON. FOLLOWED BY A UNIQUE HEADLINE SHOW AT MANCHESTER INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL, PERFORMING IN THE ROUND IN THEIR HOME CITY, THEN CAME A SUMMER OF FESTIVAL APPEARANCES: TAKING THEIR SHOW TO THE NETHERLANDS, BRUSSELLS, GERMANY AND MULTIPLE SHOW IN FRANCE INCLUDING A HEADLINE SLOT AT THE MIDI FESTIVAL. THE SUMMER ENDED WITH A SECRET CLOSING SET AT THE END OF THE ROAD FESTIVAL IN DORSET. AS THE COMMUNITY GROWS, SO DO THE STAGES, AND 2026 WILL SEE THEM BRING MORE RESIDENCIES TO FURTHER AWAY LOCATIONS, PLUS THEIR LARGEST FESTIVAL HEADLINE SHOWS TO DATE.

ALL THEIR WORK IS RELEASED INDEPENDENTLY THROUGH LYF RECORDINGS, SUSTAINED BY A MEMBERSHIP COMMUNITY VIA WORLDUNITE.ORG. TO PARTICIPATE IS TO TAKE PART IN THE CULTIVATION OF AN ALTERNATIVE CULTURE AND AN OPEN INVITATION TO HELP WRITE THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE BOOK OF LYF.

WU LYF ARE ELLERY JAMES ROBERTS, EVANS KATI, TOM MCCLUNG AND JOE MANNING
