Lovebettie

Making their first steps onto the scene in early 2005, Lovebettie began as a songwriting duo of founding members Alexandra Naples and C.T. Fields. Influenced by everything from the grandeur of modern rock, to the swagger of 1920's Jazz, they created a powerful and compelling sound of pop and rock charged with feverish rhythms, emotive lyrics, and a sultry blues-drenched fusion.

Making their first steps onto the scene in early 2005, Lovebettie began as a songwriting duo of founding members Alexandra Naples and C.T. Fields. Influenced by everything from the grandeur of modern rock, to the swagger of 1920's Jazz, they created a powerful and compelling sound of pop and rock charged with feverish rhythms, emotive lyrics, and a sultry blues-drenched fusion. Solidifying this sound are the added talents of Dan Mulkeen (graduate of The Players School of Music, Clearwater Fl.) and Larry Shotter (well noted Pittsburgh session drummer). Since this time, Lovebettie's persistent drive and tireless work ethic has helped them evolve from a local favorite to a regional success (heavily performing and marketing themselves on the East Coast). They have developed a strikingly large fan base, and shared the stage with multitudes of national acts including: Lifehouse, The Verve Pipe, Tim Reynolds (Dave Matthews Band), Guster, Bowling for Soup, Rusted Root, and many more. They won The Hardrock Cafe and 105.9 The X's Winter Rock Showcase, as well as accolades in several other contests including Van's Warped Tour Top 10 Bands of 2008. They headlined an east coast Hot Topic Tour in summer 2009, and released their first music video in February 2010 for airing consideration on MTV, VH1, and Fuse. Pittsburgh City Paper states "Naples' voice soars and growls with a touch of Fiona Apple." And The Ohio Post said, "Lovebettie plays indescribable music." Pittnews.com says "Lovebettie, is the hottest band in the Pittsburgh music scene."
