Happy Music Monday!!
Today it’s time to get UP CLOSE & PERSONAL with…
LOVE HUNT!
It’s actually a kind of funny story how I met the band!
Remember that interview I did with Garrett Lee Robinson forever ago?! Well…I was there at the show, listening to the music, taking photos, covering the show when a guy came up to me and offered me a copy of his band’s EP! Well…I ended up listening to that EP a little while later and FELL IN LOVE! So I found the band on Facebook and contacted them for an interview!
So here we are!! I have an awesome interview to share with you! But FIRST let’s go over who the band is!
Love Hunt is a band from Corona, CA and they play Indie-Funk music! It’s something I haven’t seen done well very often…so way to go guys! The band is made up of 3 members; Marc, Mark Krizsan, & Noah Vergara.
Anyways…enough of my ranting…here is my interview with…
LOVE HUNT
What type of music do you guys play?
Alternative/funk rock with some rap.
When did you guys become a band?
We officially became a band in March of 2014
Who’s idea was it to become a band?
It was more of a collective idea, all of us wanted to create a band together.
Why the name “Love Hunt”?
Love Hunt came to be by just coming up with a list of random names that Mark (guitarist) wrote. Love Hunt was our first pick because of the meaning behind it, the hunt for love that everyone goes through. It’s sort of reflective of our sound too where Love is soft and Hunt is more hard.
Who are your main musical influences?
Our main musical influences would be Red Hot Chili Peppers, Toro y Moi, and Maroon 5.
If you could collaborate with anyone who would it be?
We would love to make music with Kid Cudi, he’s super talented and creative!

The next step for us as of right now is to keep playing shows and get our name out there. We are also working on our new EP, which will be coming out very soon.
