Kyla La Grange is to headline the next Guardian New Band of the Day gig in London on Thursday 14 June. The show precedes the hotly tipped young singer's debut album Ashes, scheduled for release in July.

Author of the New Band column Paul Lester was – as ever – early on the case with Kyla, nominating her as new band of the day No 1,062 almost a year ago. At the time he wrote: "If you like brooding, witchily beguiling rock with a keen sense of the darkly dramatic, you'll love this."

More recently, in a live review, Mark Beaumont noted the debt she seems to pay to others – "there's Florence Welch's pagan bellow, Anna Calvi's theatrics, Lana del Rey's sultry warble, and at root the reconstituted folk of PJ Harvey and Mumford & Sons" – but was of the view that on stage she's "anything but formulaic". "Enchanting," he concluded perkily.

Completing the lineup for the gig at the Barfly in London are Digits, the Hall of Mirrors, Bobby Tank, Seasfire and the newly announced We Were Evergreen.
