Lamb is an English electronic music duo consisting of producer Andy Barlow and singer-songwriter Lou Rhodes. Formed in 1994 in Manchester, the group established itself with a distinctive style that blends elements of trip-hop, drum and bass, jazz, and electronic music, often characterized by Rhodes' haunting vocal style and emotive lyrics. Lamb's music is known for its cinematic quality and the way it crafts a delicate balance between organic instrumentation and electronic production.

Over the years, Lamb has released several albums, with their self-titled debut album in 1996 gaining critical acclaim and serving as a keystone for the trip-hop genre. After a hiatus between 2004 and 2009 to pursue solo projects, the band reunited to produce more innovative music, resulting in the release of albums like "Backspace Unwind" (2014) and "The Secret of Letting Go" (2019). With "The Secret of Letting Go," Lamb demonstrated their ever-evolving sound, presenting a rich tapestry of textures that range from the intimate to the expansive, reflective of both the band's deep introspection and their expansive musical journey. Despite the ever-changing landscape of electronic music, Lamb has maintained a devoted fan base and continues to captivate new listeners with their profound artistry and dynamic live performances.
