Bio
The Lovely Creatures are a two piece indie-rock band formed in the summer of 2014. The husband and wife duo are known for their far from ordinary stage act and innovative use of self-made instruments enabling the two-piece band to become a 3-4 piece band live, with no pre-recorded loops or computers...
Much of the band's original sound is built around and driven by an instrument Kane built and calls "Birtha." Spelled with an 'i' it was literally born of an old salvaged organ. The dominating bass heard in all songs is played with Kane's feet, while playing guitar and singing simultaneously, and it is done with Birtha... A series of pedals arranged like large piano keys, each representing a different bass note that when played offer beastly organ like bass tones and shoots out bursts of light on stage. By intertwining the guitar and bass being played by the same person, it provides an unexpected organic and charismatic sound.
The Lovely Creatures were truly born when wife Malia began writing with Kane in 2014 and unlocked a very special kind of magic. Her rhythmic character on the drums and "porcelain doll" like vocals brought an identity to the band that has been spreading fast over the past year.
The band is fully independent and self funded on love for music and using it as a tool to help people. Kane and Malia Fontecchio have thus far done all recording independently, directed, produced, filmed, and stared in their own music videos, have done all promoting, and booking independently on their own.
