ARTIST: The Lookie Loos
The Lookie Loos began their life at the start of 2005. The two founding members of Tim Steers (Guitar+vox) and Alex Mustard (Bass) met whilst studying at the same institution within Hamilton.
Steers moved from the U.K to study music within New Zealand and Mustard made the long journey from Waihi to study sport at the Waikato Institute of Technology.
Musically the two began to collaborate after only a few months of knowing each other and instantly found a kinship within their writing and composition. It was the music that they loved that forced them to begin writing original music with a view of playing live around New Zealand.
The first full line up of the Lookie Loos saw the addition of an American drummer by the name of Joe Gruber. After recording some demos and playing live for six months the three piece were due to release an EP towards the end of 2006 but were hampered by the news that their drummer was being deported back to the U.S and thus stifling the release and all shows were cancelled...
