Influences
The music of the Lovely Eggs is mainly influenced by the ecstasy of the modern mind and all its trappings. For those people who want to find us through a musical influence search, we would like to shout the following bands from the rooftops...The Velvet Underground, Daniel Johnston, Red Crayola, Sonic Youth, Scout Niblett, The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers, Bikini Kill, The Make-Up, Pavement, Moldy Peaches, The Beach Boys, The Fall, The Beat Happening and on and on et cetera
David and Holly are lovely eggs. They like to play music together and share a drink (although David doesnt like Strongbow anymore. It doesnt agree with him.) Holly likes books and historical things. David doesnt like books and historical things so much. He prefers cine light shows and fixing things that are broken. Oh, and collectibles. Is this anything to do with the music? Why but of course. This (my dear Watson) tells you everything and nothing all at once.
This is our Twin Peaks-inspired spooky single that we made to shit people up.
Each CD resembles one of a selection of Agent Cooper's favourite flavour donuts, handpackaged with a very special free collectible gift- a Laura Palmer half heart necklace!
It's also available to download on I Tunes, along with the 'B' sides 'It's Spooky' (a cover by our favourites Daniel Johnston and Jad Fair) and 'Rappin in Plastic' which we recorded after our American tour in NYC.

Hello Lovely Eggs and wise fans of the ones who constantly deliver the yolky goods!
This month on Dandelion Radio I play a track by The Lovely Eggs on my monthly queer-feminist-punk-pop-electro radio show. It's a mighty two hour slice of music by shouty women, political queers, underground delights you will never have heard, and under-rated past genius from the likes of Helen Love, Kirsty MacColl, Bikini Kill, Shampoo and many more. I defy you not to be inspired!
You can listen to the show daily throughout the month of November at a different time each day. Visit www.dandelionradio.com for the full schedule for the month and vote for your 3 favourite tracks of the year for this years FESTIVE 50, which we proudly host in the sad absence of John Peel.
Hey! I put some new tunes up today, and I also re-recorded some old ones. If you got a sec, check them out. I'd love to know what you think. All the best, Johnny.
Apologies for being spammy, but just to let you know that myself and
the Pope proudly announce the release of my second album, Murder Music,
out now on Cherryade Records.

yourself to be modestly outraged - McCabe is kicking against the
pricks, and declaring homosexual cliche's bankrupt" - Artrocker
"If you like punk, you'll love this. If you're queer and like punk,
you'll spunk your pants. Ste McCabe is authentic and brilliant." - Boy
