The Lathums' debut album How Beautiful Life Can Be set for Number 1 on Official Albums Chart

officialcharts.com:

The Lathums are set for Number 1 glory on this week’s Official Albums Chart with their new album How Beautiful Life Can Be. The Wigan indie band’s debut full-length release leads a flurry of new entries on today’s Official Chart Update with a healthy lead of 3,700 chart sales over their nearest rival.

The Lathums’ potential Number 1 is the latest step in the quartet’s rise to fame. Over the past year the band have garnered praise from the likes of Paul Weller, Elton John and Tim Burgess, a Top 20 EP with The Memories We Make, and last November they helped pull their hometown football team Wigan Athletic FC out of administration by raffling off a one-off vinyl.
