  • Description

    With their sixth album, A Friend in the World, Lovers fuse intimacy and empowerment into a modern atmosphere of honesty, new feminist humor, and rhythmic complexity. The result is at once confident, tender and romantic. A Friend in the World is a rich engagement of acoustic and electronic extroversion and introspection--an uplifting ride into uncharted territories of the heart and mind. This is the follow-up to Lovers' best-selling 2010 release Darklight and the second for the band as a trio. Says Portland's #1 weekly: Willamette Week- "Carolyn Berk's Lovers has had many incarnations over the years, but something stuck when the project coalesced into a meaty, synth-driven three-piece: the intensity upped, understated love songs became huge dance-club anthems and the trio's live show became a must-see." A Friend in the World was recorded at Portland, Oregon's beloved Type Foundry with Badman label owner Dylan Magierek (Thao Nguyen & Portland Cello Project, Mark Kozelek, Starfucker) and Adam Selzer (She & Him, M.Ward), and mixed by Andy Lemaster (Michael Stipe, Bright Eyes). Lovers is on tour now in the US and plays the UK/Europe in Fall 2013. The band plans an extensive US and UK/Europe tour in spring through summer 2014.
