Lydia Loveless

[bold992006]

Anyone heard of this girl from Ohio?...if you like country-ish Loretta Lynn type music check her out.  Her lyrics are raw (kind of x-rated at times)  and she has a great voice...just signed to Bloodshot Records.  She is doing a little east coast tour coming up..i'm seeing her in Cambridge, MA on the 23rd with Joe Fletcher and the Wrong Reasons, another awesome band.

"If these songs are all true life testimonials, it's a wonder Loveless isn't in a mental institution or, worse, jail – maybe it's the gift of song that is saving her soul..."- Donewaiting.com


"Tales of cheating lovers, jealous girlfriends, holy roller religion, and heavy drinking abound throughout The Only Man as Loveless – who sings with a southern drawl that sounds more Tennessee than Ohio – is backed by badass country musicians...Were it not for the randy language and tales of violence, I could easily imagine this record sitting comfortably amongst somebody's grandparents record collection..."-Chip Midnight

"Though the comparisons are plenty, it's hard not to think of legendary country music voices the likes of Kitty Wells, Patsy Cline, and Loretta Lynn when one first hears Ohio native Lydia Loveless strum her guitar, raise her chin, and sing into her microphone.The energy, for the listener, comes not just from what we hear now from Loveless, but also from the expectations and anticipation around what her future discontented experiences may bring to the next song we hear."  Columbus Indie
