Biography

Drawing inspiration from late-'60s psychedelia and mid-'90s pop underground acts like Matthew Sweet, Australia's Lovetones formed in the early 2000s with Matthew J. Tow, Matthew Sigley, Serge Luca, and Chris Cobb. Having generated a considerable buzz with their 2002 Bomp debut, Be What You Want, the band went on to tour and eventually collaborate with the Brian Jonestown Massacre. After three jam-packed years of touring, during which time the band managed to release the Stars EP and record several tracks with the BJM, the Lovetones' sophomore album, Meditations, was released on Tee Pee. A third release, Axiom, arrived in 2007.
