About Lottery Winners
Lottery Winners are the working-class underdog story of the year. Their fifth studio album, Anxiety Replacement Therapy, was released on 28 April 2023 and debuted at number 1 in the UK, topping the Official UK Album Charts. It was the 5th highest selling first week album of the year, selling more copies in the UK than U2 and Miley Cyrus. The album has received worldwide critical acclaim and has connected with people in a special way. The album tackles mental illness and ADHD in a biographical, chronological story of personal redemption. Songs like ‘Letter to Myself’, a song written to 12 year old Thom after getting expelled from school and feeling like a misfit, to tell him that everything is going to work out. ‘Worry’, ‘Long Way Down’ and ‘Sertraline’, a love song about an antidepressant, also mark the more troubling parts of the record. As the album progresses, the mood lightens and songs like ‘Not Alone’ and ‘Let Me Down’ provide comfort to Thom’s journey. Concluded with ‘Anxiety Replacement Therapy’, which poetically combines all of the other songs on the album. It truly is the band’s seminal moment.
Already previously producing a wealth of star-spangled collaborations of industry greats such as Nickelback, Frank Turner, Sleeper and KT Tunstall, the Lottery Winners’ latest album is setting the bar even higher, with the likes of Shaun Ryder, Boy George and once again Frank Turner gracing the record. The band has received airtime from Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 6, Radio X, Virgin Radio, as well as record of the week and A-list on Absolute Radio. The band had a huge summer playing festival stages including four slots at Glastonbury and are currently on their biggest ever UK tour, finishing at a sold out Manchester Apollo this December.
