". . .we walked outside to the Pierce Transit Park right as Handful of Luvin’ began playing. Um, wow. Just wow. Good gravy in all that’s made from butter, I am in love. I was so drawn in. The voice, the violin, the rhythm, I couldn’t help but want to dance. I was drawn to the stage, and immediately began taping. The crowd was nuts, the dancing, the energy, and vibes of happiness. These people loved this band, and I craved more when they were done. I will definitely be seeing more of them soon." -- Steph DeRosa (Weekly Volcano)

It’s a new music sensation that has lately been generating well-deserved hype in the Northwest." - Sean Roach (Bainbridge Review) read the full article here: http://www.bainbridgereview.com/portals-code/list.cgi?paper=96&cat=23&id=1031982&more=0 "A potpourri of all great bands we've loved before, each member brings his own unique sound and experience to the stage, formulating an utterly beautiful frenzy. The violinist is mesmerizing as he plays away with all the sound and fury of a regular rock star. And it doesn't hurt that the singer and songwriter is unassumingly gorgeous — maybe the sweat oozing down our face at their last show wasn't just from dancing." - Seattle Weekly "Handful of Luvin is an eccentric blend of harmony and considerate lyrics. Spawned from Seattle, Handful of Luvin is one the city's most adored live bands. The band is a unique blend of writing, music and overall emotion. Together, Handful of Lovin fashions music into an adaptation of magic." -Tanya Vece (Editor for the Horse Chronicles - Indie Music Magazine) read the full article here: http://thehorsechronicles.tripod.com/id49.html Handful of Luvin' has become a 'strong established crowd pleaser' (Seattle Weekly) in the Pacific Northwest and continues to work hard to further their sound to new fans everywhere "Handful mixes the creative drumming style of Dispatch, a guitar technique similar to Keller Williams, Red Hot Chili Peppers-like bass lines, violin riffs better than Boyd Tinsley – all with a Northwest flavor. Songs such as “Take Me Home” and “Zephyr Cove Blues” make you wish it were summer all year long, so you could crank these tunes loud with flip-flops and a cold beer. The band also has killer stage presence, and their sound is reminiscent of Willis, the long-lost, yet much-celebrated Seattle band from the mid-to-late 90s." -Independent Global Music- http://www.angeloslist.org/ |
