Lost Lot are a Newcastle upon Tyne alt-country band bringing a distinctly North East perspective to music influenced by Americana, roots rock and contemporary folk. Previously known as Matt Dunbar & The Autonomous Collective, the group draw inspiration from artists including Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit, Wilco, The Milk Carton Kids and Bruce Springsteen.
The self-titled Lost Lot EP arrived in 2023 with songs including Coffee, Only You, We Built A House, Someone Who Loved You and Ghost. The writing favours storytelling over spectacle, dealing with relationships, memory and small lived-in details while the arrangements keep enough rock weight to stop the songs becoming overly delicate.
Newcastle remains the band’s home and an important part of their identity. Their gigs sit naturally across folk, country and alternative bills, giving Lost Lot a distinctive place in a regional scene more often associated with indie and heavier guitar music.
