Bio
.. Lovers In Arms began in 2006 as a trip-hop experiment between singer-songwriters Caroline Yohanan and Armando Perez. Their first independent LP, “Belmont Electric” debuted to positive local reviews, and ranges in influence from hip-hop to rock. The album was brought to life onstage with a band that includes Ryan Schoen on bass, Dan Lieber on drums and vocals, and Juan Lugo on percussion and guitar. .. .. L.I.A.’s 2008 album, “Strength For The Weary,” features both live instrumentation and electronics, exploratory writing, and multi-layered vocal harmonies. By experimenting and improvising on stage, the group creates a sort of acoustic trip-hop rock that moves you. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ......CMPtv On Stage: Lovers In Arms "Oh My Brother".. from ..CMPtv.. on ..Vimeo..... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ......CMP OnStage: Shades of Green.. from ..Chicago Music Project.. on ..Vimeo..... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ......CMP OnStage: Lovers in Arms "The Alchemist".. from ..Chicago Music Project.. on ..Vimeo..... .. .. ..

The group made its recorded debut with a disc called "Belmont Electric," expanded to a quintet for live performance (with bassist Ryan Schoen, drummer Dan Lieber and Juan Lugo joining Perez on guitar) and returned to the studio last year to craft the new D.I.Y. album "Strength for the Weary," as impressive a disc from a Chicago combo as this column has ever covered. .. ..
