Lande Hekt

Lande Hekt’s Lucky Now marks a sophisticated evolution for twee pop. Blending the political optimism of Amelia Fletcher with the introspection of Sarah Records, Hekt expands the genre’s boundaries using 90s alt-rock grit and sparkling production. From the jangly title track to the sharp social commentary of “Circular,” these three-minute gems establish Hekt as a highly individual, accomplished artist.

UK songwriter Lande Hekt returns January 30th with her third album, Lucky Now. Produced by Matthew Simms, the record fuses her signature indie-pop with 80s jangle-pop influences. The title track and video, filmed in Scarborough, serve as a moving exploration of personal freedom—marking a shift toward a more grounded, grateful perspective for the underground staple.

Lande Hekt, the celebrated underground songwriter and former Muncie Girls frontwoman, has released “Favourite Pair of Shoes,” the sparkling first single from her upcoming album, Lucky Now, due out January 30th, 2026, on Tapete Records. Watch the accompanying video, created by David Goodchild and filmed on Dartmoor and in Exeter in September 2025.
