LEVOLORA

Better than cats flying at light speed!

About Me

Levolora are a 4-piece Glaswegian band playing fresh mix of powerpop, alternative rock, shoegaze, emo and some post-rock.
The band are fronted by dynamic vocalist Charlene (Rhythm Guitar & Vocals) along with JJ (Lead Guitar), David (Bass & Backing Vocals) and Xander (Drums) who all help shape the bands overall sound.
We're currently working our asses off writing lots of new ideas for an EP / album perhaps... and are in general enjoying making music and gigging about the place. Awsome-ness!
Please help spread the word by putting a banner on your page. Thanks!!! :)
"ALREADY likened to Grammy-nominated American band Paramore, this Glasgow four-piece, fronted by female singer Charlene, certainly create well-crafted tunes. Like so much of Emo, an almost angelic voice sings sweetly over a hail of howling guitars.
First tune 'Hit The Target' actually sounds more like The Cranberries as Charlene's Irish folk singing voice pleads: "And after all/I gave you everything/too much too soon" in a great heartbreak tune. 'Without A Fight' rocks even louder than 'Hit The Target' and deals with relationships from a girl's point of view. 'Remember When' drops the tempo, starting with a chiming guitar and Charlene's voice. While final song 'Fever' is another quiet tune with some nifty fretwork from lead guitarist JJ.
No doubt, this is another Scots band who deserve a deal."

Rick Fulton - Daily Record.

"...the Scottish Paramore... a female version of Biffy..."
Martin Bate - XFM Radio.

"...there's quite a bit of interest in this band and I think they're gonna go a long way!..."
