Lovanova.

Who else is in your band?

What do you hope to achieve in music? 
Have fun playing music that makes us happy.

What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why? 
The show we played for 14 people that totally kicked ass. Cause its about the music.

And what’s the moment you want to forget? 
That really big festival where it was 108 degrees...Whew!!

If you could choose just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why? 
Impossible to pick just one song as a general representation of Lovanova. Our music has so many influences it simply can not be categorized.

www.lovanova.net is our website where all things Lovanova are found.




Where can we find out more about your music? 
You can find lots of links at www.lovanova.net

Anything else you’d like to say about your band that I forgot to ask? 
We love to travel and play music and meet people who appreciate real music, not the contrived, corporate crapola that dominates most of our major media and radio attention. Lovanova will keep changing with every album...we recorded our last album deep in the north woods...our next album is departing from everything we've done to date and using different technology and more jamming together to create the song structures...we're adventurous and you never know what we're gonna play next! We also have started included some great crazy analog slide shows with our performances, as well as synched up old colour organ lighting.
