The LOVETT circus are releasing their album Highway Collection, available March 15, 2011.
Through a nomadic and exploratory experience, Ben Lovett has created an album of compelling variety, captured in motion, each song brilliantly crafted ‘from a different part of another life’, into a diverse philosophy of sound deep enough to sink a ship.
On Highway Collection you find a driving pulse and child-like innocence akin to The Shins, layered with zany and dreamy backing vocals a la The Flaming Lips, floating above the rolling drumbeats of a modernized Strawberry Fields-era Beatles, all led by a constantly evolving voice with an eloquent message of mature and heartfelt universality.
Lovett’s eclectic cast of contributing musicians includes band members of The Avett Brothers, The Mars Volta, and Cursive, with additions by Money Mark, Electric Owls, Ponderosa and appearances by talents involved in projects as diverse as the Eels and Spiritualized to Against Me, The Zac Brown Band and the Sonos Quartet.
LOVERS LABEL is proud to announce the coming release of Highway Collection, the debut album of original songs by LOVETT, available March 15th, 2011. This is an eclectic and exciting project full of surprises, stay in touch with Lovers Label over the new few months as the story unfolds.
The circus is coming.
