WU LYF (pronounced “Woo Life”, stands for “World Unite Lucifer Youth Foundation”) were an indie rock band from Manchester, England. They described their sound as “heavy pop”.
The band was formed in the summer of 2008 and consisted of Ellery Roberts (lead vocals, organ), Tom McClung (guitar, harmonica, vocals), Evans Kati (bass, guitar, vocals) and Joe Manning (drums, piano).
They originally became known for creating a mystery about themselves by declining requests for interviews and not releasing much information to the press.
The band split up in 2012, following the departure of lead singer Ellery Roberts. The remaining three WU LYF members continued on as Los Porcos. Later Tom McClung created a solo project called Francis Lung, and Evans Kati and Joe Manning formed Dream Lovers. Ellery Roberts formed LUH., which stands for “Lost Under Heaven”, with girlfriend Ebony Hoorn.
