Alt/Emo/Rock from Orlando, FL
Who
are the members in your band and what is their role?
LUVLOST
consists of 4 members:
Joshy
Sims - Bass / Vocals
Hayden
Cler - Guitar / Vocals
Danny
Strong - Drums
Ian
Taylor - Guitar
How
did you meet?
Me
and Hayden met back in 2015 through some mutual friends and found very similar
interest in music. After Hayden hearing the songs I had been writing, we
decided to go all in this together and make LUVLOST what it is today.
How did you decide on your band name?
We
had about 10 different band names in mind, one of them being a name we all came
up with "Love Lust". After a couple days of conversation, our old
drummer Pedro suggested changing "lust" to "lost" and we
all knew that was the name that fit us the most. We changing the spelling a bit
and there was no going back.
Who are your biggest influences?
We
all come from very diverse background and pull influence from many different
places, but for me personally I have always looked up to Brandon Urie of Panic!
At The Disco and Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance. They really helped shape
the way I write my lyrics and melodies.
Who
writes the songs?
The
song writing is honestly a group effort. Either me or Hayden have an idea for a
song and then it just goes from there. Everyone in this band plays a big part
in the writing process and I wouldn't have it any other way
What are you working on right now?
At
the moment we are current in the process of writing and recording our Sophomore
EP titled "la forĂȘt". We have been working on this EP for quite some
time and I speak for all of us when I say we can not wait to show all of our
friends, family, and fans what we have been hard at work on!
What
are your plans for the future?
We
just want to put out music and tour. At the end of the day this is what we all
LUV (yes.. LUV đ) to do.
Music is our life and it's all we want to do.
What is your favorite venue to play?
We
have played many shows at The Social. The team working there, including one of
our closest friends Marshall, has been so amazing to us and we can't thank them
enough for the opportunity they have given us and the support they have given
not only the band, but the support they have given us as people.
What is your favorite state to play?
LUVLOST
in its own entity has not played outside of Orlando, but I have been on the
road with Danny and Hayden with their other project Suck Brick Kid and we love
being up north. Weather it is playing in New York, Boston, or my personal
favorite northern city Philly, we have had some of the best experiences of our
lives up there.
What
is something your fans don’t know about you?
We're
honestly just a bunch of drunk, crazy dudes who just want to play music. The
support we have gotten has been amazing, but no matter what happens, this is
what we love and what we will always do!
Are you touring in the near future?/On tour right now?
We
do not currently have any tour set, but it is definitely in the works and we
plan on being on the road by then end of this year. We are very exited to meet
new people and play these songs we love in front of new crowd.
What is your favorite song to play live?
This
is a hard question because I thoroughly enjoy playing out entire set, but at the
moment my favorite song we have been playing is a new song off our upcoming EP
called "Cheap Wine Tastes Better Out Of Expensive Glasses".
What is your favorite piece of merchandise that you have released?
There
is the AWESOME shirt we have that I personally wear all the time. We printed
the tee after the tragedy at Pulse night club happened. The back of the shirt
has a depiction of two sailors kissing and reads "MAKE LUV NOT WAR".
We donated a couple hundred dollars off the sales of those tees to the Pulse
fund. We love to support our local community and the amazing people we have.
Anyway we can give back, we always will.
What show can we catch you binge watching?
I
am a big fan of Shameless. I watched all 6 season on Netflix in 2 weeks and I
have no regrets!
Who are your guilty pleasure musicians to listen to?
I
can't get enough of some crazy angry hardcore music at the moment. Hayden has recent
been very into Moose Blood (which is one of personal favorites), but I can't
get enough of these up and coming beat down band's such as Knocked Loose and
Culture Killer. I will always have a soft spot for a bad ass riff with some
angsty lyrics over it.
Where can we find your music?
Our
music is sourced out to many places. For the main part, you can find out first
EP "l'extrémité profondé" on Spotify, Apple Music, and at luvlostfl.bandcamp.com
Where can we buy your merch?
We
sell most of merch at our shows, but we do have a few items online at luvlost.bigcartel.com
