Interlaker

Interlaker

Saturday

Forest Sessions - 13:00

Interlaker is David Jakes (formerly of Lonely The Brave) and Jack Wrench (formerly of Arcane Roots). Jakes was the commanding voice behind the Lonely The Brave sound; a master of melody, his lyrical talents enthralled audiences across Europe from supporting Neil Young on mainland Europe, arenas with Biffy Clyro, to the main stage at Reading and Leeds festival. A man who was always uncomfortable with being the centre of attention, total juxtaposition to the anthemic tunes he writes, which have always felt like they could move mountains. As the band grew in reputation so did his issues with the constant attention and adoration, resulting in him leaving Lonely the Brave in March 2018. Fast forward five years and Jakes is back with Interlaker, a new musical project, with a new musical partner, Jack Wrench. Wrench, a skilled drummer but also a multi instrumentalist, became the perfect partner for Jakes.
