Lifetime has been working hard during this summer to build up a strong live set. We did not want to have the common live set made of musicians playing, moving and dancing energically. We wanted to go one step further. We have a VJ and stage design changes, all according to the song lyrics and mood. We're still working on improving the show but, at this very moment, we're sure you'll love it.
Why don't come to our gig on 1st October and see it yourself? You're truly welcome!
Regards,
Lifetime

Hi folks
Rehearsals for the forthcoming shows have just started while the mixdown of the album continues. Our song "Too Late" has recently been picked as single of the month by the prestigious record label and independent music mazagine Popchild, being the song available to download in their website: http://www.popchild.com. We encourage you to visit their page (in spanish, tought) because it's a good reference about the indie music in our hometown, Barcelona, and in our country, Spain.
We'll keep rehearsing for few months, having our first date the 20th May in Barcelona (see the gigs section). If you're around our city, we encourage you to come to see us. It will be worth the travel! :) Believe me!
See ya!
