We Were Lovers

We Were Lovers' (WWL) dancey beats, swirling atmospheric guitars, and dynamic synths convey a wide array of moods and themes, as strong female vocals wrap stories of love and loss around catchy melodies. With comparisons such as “... Stevie Nicks-meets-The Cure pop" by The Austinist.com, Ash Lamothe and Elsa Gebremichael have mastered a pop balance infusing electro, dreamy, rock and disco elements. Known for their high energy live show, this duos undeniable connection radiates from the stage.

No stranger to the road, WWL has spent many months on tour across Canada and much of the U.S. including dates in NYC, Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, Las Vegas, San Diego, and Los Angeles where they played at the legendary Viper Room. They’ve also opened for Tegan and Sara, Mother Mother, The Arkells, Land Of Talk, and the New York Dolls, as well as showcased at various festivals such as the WCMAs, Halifax Pop Explosion, NXNE in Toronto and SXSW in Austin, TX. After releasing their self-titled EP in Oct ’10, recorded in NYC with engineer / producer Chris Coady (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV On The Radio, Beach House, Grizzly Bear, etc) and mastering engineer Joe Laporta (Vampire Weekend, The Raveonettes, The Walkmen, etc), the duo are primed to release their first full length album due out Summer 2012.
