Jango Band of The Month - Lovestruck Robot


Listen to Jango
Meet Lovestruck Robot, a promising band from Orlando, FL. They recently won the Florida Grammy Showcase, and just performed at the honorable "A Night of Hope Gala". Things are definitely looking up for these guys, and in February they're Jango's Band of The Month. Here is the interview, enjoy!

Describe Lovestruck Robot's sound in one sentence? 
Put Maroon 5, Justin Timberlake, Lenny Kravitz, and Outkast in a blender and you will get a Lovestruck Robot smoothie.



When was Lovestruck Robot formed and where? 
February of 2011 in Orlando, FL

Name three people who have influenced your music, and tell us why? Living or dead. 
Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake, Sting.

How do you connect with fans and get them involved in your music? 
We do a lot of live shows!! Social networking is also huge. We are constantly interacting with fans and announcing new shows and projects on Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter. Internet radio like Jango is also a huge avenue to connect with fans. We also like to have random contests where we give away free tickets, t-shirts, CD's, etc.

What do you like most about Jango Airplay?
Jango Airplay is amazing. Unlike a lot of other internet radio entities, fans can interact with the artists and leave comments. Plus, our songs are played along with a lot of great successful acts that our music is actually compared to, which makes it easier for us to get heard and extend our fan base to people who might not otherwise ever have heard of Lovestruck Robot.

Is there any recent project you'd like to share with us? Tell us about it.
We recently won the 2011 Florida Grammy Showcase here in Orlando, FL. We showcased two songs, "Do It All for the Dream," and "I Wanna Be in a Band." We shared the stage with several other up and coming acts and ended up winning the grand prize.  We won $25,000 in cash and prizes and received a lot of great endorsements. Coming out as a new band with a new record and getting that kind of industry notoriety means a lot to us!

Are you guys playing live and do you have any shows coming up soon? 
Yes!! We are so stoked and honored to be asked to perform at this year's annual "A Night of Hope Gala" here in Orlando, FL on February 18. It is a huge charity event to benefit "The Faine House" put on by Jeff Faine (C for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers).  It is a great cause and aids in finding homes for neglected and homeless adolescents. We will also be performing live at the Havana Club in Atlanta, GA on Friday, February 24 at 8 pm and Saturday, February 25 at 8 pm.

Check out their latest music video for the award winning song "I Wanna Be In A Band"
