SPLINTER OUT ON 2ND MAY 2024

SPLINTER is the 2nd single from my forthcoming album, RED which will be released later this year. Single release date just happens to be my birthday so would be a lovely present for you all to give it a thumbs up and follow on your fave music platform.

The track features a wash of guitar with some dissonance and equal measures of disdain and hope. If you like it a bit grungy and grumpy, then you will like Splinter.

My new single Love Bite was released 5th April 2024 on all music platforms. You can buy directly from here: https://lolademo.bandcamp.com/track/love-bite

I've thrown off the sadness and am deep diving back into madness with Guitar, Bass, Drums and a splash of noise, fueling a little sarcasm and dirty prancing around lyrics of love, narcissists, humiliation, glorification. Size really does matter when it has to do with brain matter.

My 11 track album, Gravity was released 17th March 2023. With this release, I'm not kicking heads or testicles, nor am I challenging how we are made to see our lives through these excessively changing times.
Gravity is more like a whisper in your ear. Listening to it is all you need to know about it. Hope you like it.

About Me

Although everything you want to know about me is in my songs, I can tell you my name is Erika Bach, I was born in Germany, raised in Australia and now living in Greece. My musical history comprises of a goth band called Ape the Cry (Melb AUS), an alt rock band, Hard Candy (Melb AUS) and a deviation into dark electronica with British musician/producer Barry Snaith (TIJ) in our duo m1nk

I write and record music between Athens Greece and a small island in the Ionian called Ithaca, in my mobile studio, Strudel Girl, and I try to release an album/ep at least once a year. My soft spot in music leans toward grungy garage, but I am equally drawn to music that expells some dark melancholy in the form of a good melody. My lyrics can bite and sting and are never in any pop realm. I am quite happy for you to run me down if you find me in the 'middle of the road' at any time. I prefer the edges.

Reviews

"If Patti Smith, Lou Reed, and Joan Jett had one night of chemically induced sexual passion, the next mornings aftermath would be Lola Demo"

— Hittingbirth Music

When was the last time an album seduced you? I mean really seduced you, heart and soul? Made you feel vulnerable, ready to question your deepest thoughts, laid your innermost feelings bare? Lola Demo’s songs do all of that and more.

— Dancing About Architecture - Dave Franklin

"Utterly staggering album. Every track is straight from the heart, right down from the depths of the soul. Not depressing but thick with melancholy and love.

— The Inconsistent Jukebox (TIJ)
