St. Lucia

St. Lucia will headline Dingwalls in London on Thursday 25 June 2026

NYC-based husband-and-wife duo St. Lucia (Jean-Philip Grobler & Patti Beranek) have announced that they’ll be headlining Dingwalls in Camden, London, on Thursday 25 June 2026 – their only UK headline tour date for 2026. For the first time ever in the UK, St. Lucia will perform a special 2-set show every night, with no opening act.

This UK show announce follows the release of  Fata Morgana: Dusk (released December 2025), the second installment of their expansive double album Fata Morgana, out now via Nettwerk.

Serving as a vibrant counterpoint to Fata Morgana: Dawn, their latest album embraces St. Lucia’s signature pop and electronic sensibilities while continuing their rich exploration of sound, nostalgia, and emotional depth. Mixed by longtime collaborator Chris Zane (Jack Antonoff, Passion Pit, The Walkmen), Dusk captures the duo at a new creative high. While Dawn leaned heavily into vintage rock, psychedelia, and experimental textures, Dusk lets St. Lucia’s pop instincts shine—pairing infectious rhythms and radiant synth-driven elements with their distinct sense of atmosphere and craft. Together, the two halves of Fata Morgana offer a full-spectrum portrait of the duo’s artistic identity: danceable yet introspective, digitally-infused yet deeply human.

The album arrived alongside the shimmering focus track “Summer Nights,” a longtime vault favorite finally making its way into the world. Jean-Philip Grobler shares, “‘Summer Nights’ is a song I wrote kinda as a silly songwriting exercise… I forced myself to start and finish a song every day for a few weeks. Years later I listened back and couldn’t help but smile from ear to ear. It felt simple, refreshing, and unpretentious, especially in the context of everything else I was working on at the time. The lyrics are literally a recounting of when Patti and I met in 2002 in Liverpool. It wasn’t exactly summer—more like early fall—but somehow ‘summer nights’ worked in the lyrics, so I kept it.”

The release of Fata Morgana: Dusk follows a string of standout singles that further point to the album’s dynamic range. Singles included, “People Change,” a luminous fusion of disco pulse and emotional introspection and “Lights Off,” a ‘90s breakbeat–infused anthem exploring carnal tension, In addition, “Giving It Up,” a hypnotic, full-band dance track reminiscent of Daft Punk’s “One More Time” and “Crimes of Passion,” which was co-written with Aly & AJ and featuring vocals from both Grobler and Beranek, drawing from South African Shangaan Disco, Kwaito, and early ’90s rave.
