About
Lovespirals evolved out of Love Spirals Downwards, the legendary Projekt Records act of multi-instrumentalist, Ryan Lum. In 1998 Lum became immersed in the San Francisco drum 'n' bass DJ scene, and soon found himself collaborating with sultry vocalist, Anji Bee on white label DJ acetates. After a series of jazzy drum 'n' bass singles released on comps alongside the likes of LTJ Bukem, Lum and Bee a new jazzy dream pop sound for their moody 2002 Projekt debut, Windblown Kiss. The duo followed up in 2005 with a sensual blend of electronica and dream pop on Free & Easy, the first CD for the band's own label, Chillcuts.
Picking back up in 2007 with the more 70's-inspired sounds of Free & Easy, Lovespirals have truly hit their stride on their third album, Long Way From Home. Melding dreamy folk and rock with soulful jazz and blues, the duo seamlessly blend prior influences with new sounds and styles. Bee confidently spins seductive tales of beautiful sadness and spiritual longing set to Lum's masterfully melancholic music. Bluesy electric guitar abounds, with touches of wistful slide guitar, tinkling piano, and haunting harmonica to evoke a lush, organic, Americana feel. Renowned music podcaster, C.C. Chapman, has said this is Lovespirals best work to date, and the band agree. In fact, Lum believes this is his finest work, bar none.
Lovespirals' music has been featured on MTV, VH1, ABC, EW and other TV and cable channels internationally. Both Lovespirals and Love Spirals Downwards albums are available via iTunes, Rhapsody, Emusic, Amazon, CDBaby, and other online retailers, as well as in-store via Metropolis Distribution in the US, Noise Kontrol in Latin America, and Monitor in Hong Kong.

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov)
Thank you for your friendship! Musical greetings from Munich/Germany!
