Loviet
friday, october 3rd
henley Stage: 5:45-6:30pm
A powerhouse of 90’s-tinged indie rock/alternative pop, Loviet (pronounced low-vee-it) has made a name for herself supporting critically acclaimed artists like The Beaches, Giant Rooks and Jesse Jo Stark and performing at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Summerfest and Ottawa Bluesfest.
Praised for her “signature, shimmery hooks with emotionally honest lyrics” (Notion) and “addictive, retro pop-rock…” (CBC), Loviet, nee Natalie Lynn, has spent the last 5 years in Toronto honing her craft, touring throughout Canada, UK and the US while growing her fanbase and catalog independently.
Her EP The Nighttime Is All In The Timing, winner of the Music Nova Scotia 2024 Rock Recording of The Year was produced by American indie-rock band Now, Now, is a five-track offering that’s sonically expansive and emotionally charged, described by Loviet as “…lots of guitars, energy, power, and mess.”.
From the unabating urgency of her boldly breathtaking anthem “Broken Lips” to the unapologetic roar of “Star Treatment”, The Nighttime Is All In The Timing finds Loviet soundtracking moments of reckoning and raw reflection through catchy and cathartic upheavals that hit hard and leave a lasting mark.
Backed by her longtime drummer Ryan Perry and bassist Keith Whipple, Loviet’s performances have been described by Exclaim! Magazine’s Megan LaPierre as ‘larger than life’, delivering a show that is fit for an arena.
