   About The Lovehandlers (NOW HAS SHIRTS)
The Lovehandlers are a four piece rock act that has combined real Detroit edge with British indie rock to create a truly unique sound. The band was formed in the winter of 2006 by guitarist/singer Ryan Hoger and drummer Julian Anderson. The band soon picked up Jack Whaley (guitar) and Nick D’Agostino (bass). While focusing on writing original material, the band has also continued to keep themselves busy with shows ranging from the State Theater and The Magic Stick to private parties and smaller local venues. As the Detroit News has stated, “What band can say they played their first show at the State Theater? The Lovehandlers.” Although the members of The Lovehandlers are young, they each bring extensive past experiences to the band. Jack Whaley and Julian Anderson both graduated from Interlochen Arts Academy. Ryan Hoger has played at the State Theatre three times, and has also been featured on FOX 2 as well as The Mitch Albom Show. All members have been playing with gigging bands professionally since age 14.

Kristi, Are You Doing Okay?

i love the new song! something very different and i like it a lot. You need songs like that to complete the album. I can't wait to hear the finished product, because so far it sounds amazing!
Skeleton Marie

Thank you for the demo, FINALLY...everything sounds amazing, as expected...we told you we could tell they'd be awesome! And I hope you appreciate all that I am doing in support of the cause, aka calling off work.

Always a loyal fan and dancer, Sheila

Jun 28 2008 8:11 PM

oh i am for sure coming. i can't wait for the new tees!
Kristi, Are You Doing Okay?





Jun 28 2008 9:41 AM

oh i see that it starts at eight, but are you guys going to be playing later than that... or are you the only band? i'd rather not leave after spending only an hour with david, so it'd be a lot easier for me if you were later. just let me know what time you play. i'd love to see you again before i leave for 2 weeks.
Kristi, Are You Doing Okay?





Jun 28 2008 9:38 AM

hmmm... what time does the july 3rd show start? thursday is my day that i visit david before i leave for vacation. If its like after 7 or 8, then i can definitely come.

Hey guys, just got the CD today! I love it, as I knew it would! Another Surprise is still my favorite with the storm cloud drum beat, but I love the CD as a whole! Thanks Ryan!
Kristi, Are You Doing Okay?





Jun 27 2008 7:47 PM

First of all, i can't go to your show on sunday because my dumbass co-worker took the entire week off to go on vacation. Therefore, i HAVE to work.

Second of all, WHEN AM I GOING TO GET THAT DEMO? i need to get it before next sunday because i am leaving to go to myrtle beach for two weeks and i need to listen to you guys while i'm there.

Ah, off to work. I wish my job was listening to The Lovehandlers and Banana Convention all day, but everyone can't work in their dreams, can they? Or is that what Canada's for? Lol, later guys!
Collin





Jun 18 2008 12:17 PM

Man, I still can't decide which version of Another Surprise I like better...I really like both of them though.
The Banana Convention





Jun 17 2008 9:26 PM

Friday night we will steal souls, fill them with rock, and then return them to their bodies. Oh yes. This show will destroy people's lives
Kristi, Are You Doing Okay?





Jun 17 2008 8:02 PM

so i just listened to all of the new songs, and they sound so fucking amazing. You were right, they do sound a lot better than the rough copies. They are so awesome and i am so excited to come to your next show!
