Lovely Dark is a six-piece indie rock band based in Minneapolis, MN. They released their debut studio album Territories on April 28, 2012. What began as a bedroom recording project for Travis and Sonia Even has blossomed into a dynamic live act bearing the distinct stamp of each of its members, which hail from such diverse bands as Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo, Buildings, Hildur Victoria, Self-Evident, Power of 2, Spaghetti Western String Co., Clair De Lune, Tora! Tora! Torrance! and Young Brides. They had their first public performance on Radio K's "Off the Record" in June of 2011. Since then they have been playing consistently in town and regionally. The music itself is a unique take on indie rock, drawing influence from many eclectic sources - from the Clash to Kate Bush, from Faraquet to Florence & the Machine, from The Dismemberment Plan to Tinariwen.
