Lovewhip is a dance band that jams, and people love it. Playing a party-starting mix of original psychedelic rock, dance-pop, and world music, the energy and presence of Lovewhip’s live shows is infectious, fun and over-the-top. This summer the band brings their music to Ketchum ID (6/30), Victor ID (7/4), Denver CO (7/7) and Chicago IL (7/17) as part of their cross-country tour!

The Boston, MA based group whip up infectious original songs for those who love shaking their booty on the dance floor. “Lovewhip may be our answer to Prince, except it’s a funky, electro-jam with a female guitar-slinging mastermind!” says Cheap Thrills Boston. Combining the best of world and reggae dance rhythms with 80’s synth, the band’s sound is topped off by singer/guitarist Empress Erin’s soaring psychedelic rock guitar, electronic soundscapes, and even a panda bear playing slide guitar, creating an “irresistible party soundtrack” that fans love! Think Talking Heads, Blondie, Gwen Stefani and LCD Soundsystem all rolled into one.

The latest album, Love Electric, is a futuristic dance party complete with unicorns, icebots, intrigue, and rock n’ roll! Each song on the album is chock full of catchy hooks, mixing dancehall reggae with disco, pop and rock. The album was produced by Jake Zavracky (producer/composer, of the bands Cyanide Valentine and Quick Fix), and recorded in Boston and Brooklyn.
