“The Love Coats”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Love Coats^[1] were an acoustic rock/pop music group formed in Huntington, West Virginia in August 2004. The band took its name upon suggestion from Jesco White guitarist Jay Hill,^[2] who explained the name as "the feeling one feels when enveloped in the false sense of security love provides."

History

The Love Coats were composed of three classical guitar students from Marshall University and a percussionist with marching experience in Drum Corps International. The group experienced moderate success, particularly in 2006 when it performed a private showcase for Atlantic Records executives at the Huntington Music Hall. The Love Coats also briefly toured^[3] with notable artists including Blues Traveler and Philadelphia-based Silvertide.

The band recorded two full-length LPs -- Under Over You (2005) and Sing To You (2006). Both albums were recorded at Smash Hits Studios in Lavalette, W.V., and received extensive airplay on radio stations including WAMX and WCMI, and television station ^[4] Network West Virginia in Parkersburg, West Virginia.

The Love Coats also played host^[5] to the We Are Marshall premiere party featuring Matthew McConaughey, Matthew Fox and David Strathairn.
