lovesliescrushing

Lovesliescrushing (stylized in lowercase as lovesliescrushing) is an American musical duo from East Lansing, Michigan, United States, formed in 1991. The two primary members of the band are Scott Cortez, who variously contributes guitars, loops and effects, and Melissa Arpin-Duimstra, who is the duo's vocalist. They are known for their dense and surreal psychedelic music drawing from shoegaze and dream pop, with unorthodox instrumentation and little to no drums.

Several guest musicians have joined the group for live performances over the duration of its career, including Michael Anderson (Turn Pale, Drekka), Ana Breton (Dead Leaf Echo, Mahogany), Andy Schiaffino (body / negative), Alyssa Browne and Andrew Prinz (Mahogany).
