about
So many different backgrounds mashed together and then squeezed into a slightly pulpy, somewhat synthetic, though unequivocally organic delight. Originally a hair-brained idea of vocalist, Lou Rodriguez, in the winter of 2003, ::One Hand Loves the Other:: took years to assemble. This final formation blends electro-indie beats with classical arrangements, provided by a multitude of orchestral instruments, and soulful, original vocals. Lou, the lyricist and voice, emerged from a background inspired by blues and soul artists of the twentieth century female persuasion. Nancy, the flautist and fingers of the synthesizer, blossomed out from classical piano and flute instruction. Mikey, the electronics engineer and composer, came from the pits of electronic haze with a clear idea of the ability to merge the organic and synthetic. Lastly, Mary, the cellist extraordinaire, picked up the bow where her precursor left it. She can make like the dickens on the strings of the cello. You've gotta love a red headed cellist. All from different places, all on different paths, but all with the same yearning to create music. It's an amalgamation of sorts I'd say. Some may say a quixotic one, though ::OHLtO:: would probably take that as a compliment. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
