In December 2016 we put our music in the capable hands of Paul Win at Brighton Electric Studio. Paul recorded us playing three of our newest songs live. The idea was to capture the Liemba 3-piece au naturel without the extra instruments that can be heard on our two self-recorded EPs. We are really pleased with how Paul has captured our essence. Hopefully it will serve as a bridge between our live performances as a three piece and our more developed studio sound. Our friend Iddy also filmed a couple of the songs. Check the videos out here:

Lyrics by Simon Gledhill

I didn't need a drink I needed you
But now the bar is what I'm closest to
A night out is the best shout
What else am I gonna do

I'm killing time with every drink I get
There is a band but they are poor at best
So my friends role a cigarette and they go outside

And darlin' when you call me
When everybody's smoking
I go round and round and round my head
Trying to rule you out
But I can't

We took the party back to Preston Street
Where night owls and vampires meet
We didn't really have to carry on
We just felt the need

Turned to stone at Medusa Bar
Playground for your senses, sanctuary for your soul
Everybody's dancing at Medusa Bar
George Shahata

But darlin' when you call me
When everybody's dancing
I go round and round and round my head
Trying to rule you out
But I can't

But darlin' when you call me
When everybody's leaving
I go round and round and round my head
Trying to rule you out
But I can't and now you're here

One Of These Days

At the end of July 2019 Liemba joined forces with Fred Hills (Ellie Ford/ Michael Baker) on drums and Joe Woodham (Jouis) on bass to record and a new full band EP. We have recorded with Rob at Ford Lane many times over the years, so it was great to work on this project with him.
