LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ Lovedrug Official Website/ www.lovedrugmusic.com) - Lovedrug's cinematic rock will be coming to a theater near you. The Ohio-based band is hitting the road with the
Plain White T's in March, following a brief intimate acoustic tour that launched last week. The coast-to-coast dates are in support of the band's forthcoming album, EVERYTHING STARTS WHERE IT ENDS, due March 6 on The Militia Group.
The group's early press has been glowing; FLAUNT magazine lauded their music as "gloomily triumphant," observing that singer Michael Shepard howls "flamboyant rock choruses about self-discovery." Meanwhile, ALTERNATIVE PRESS exclaimed, "there's no shortage of massive and muscular moments here."
With their latest release, Lovedrug has created a sublime soundtrack for the stages of life. There's no better way to experience their soundscapes than in a darkened theater, the incandescent glow of stage lights and amps on 10.
