A powerhouse of 90’s-tinged indie-rock, alt-pop, Loviet (pronounced low-vee-it) has established herself as one of Canada’s brightest up-and-coming artists to watch. Praised for her “signature, shimmery hooks with emotionally honest lyrics” (Notion) and “addictive, retro pop-rock...a polished, highly danceable project” (CBC) Loviet has made a name for herself supporting critically acclaimed artists The Beaches, Giant Rooks and Jesse Jo Stark and performing at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Summerfest and Ottawa Bluesfest. Backed by her longtime drummer Ryan Perry and bassist Keith Whipple, Loviet’s performances are larger than life, "delivering a show that is fit for an arena" (Megan LaPierre, Exclaim! Magazine).

She’s reaching even greater heights on her EP The Nighttime Is All In The Timing, produced by Cacie Dalager and Bradley Hale of American indie-rock band Now, Now. This five-track offering is sonically expansive and emotionally charged, described by Loviet as “…lots of guitars, energy, power, and mess.” recently taking home Music Nova Scotia’s Rock Recording of The Year 2024. From the unabating urgency of her boldly breathtaking anthem “Broken Lips” to the intimate, heated unpacking of trauma on “Wide Eyes” (billed as “a love letter with teeth”) to the unapologetic roar of “Star Treatment,” The Nighttime Is All In The Timing finds Loviet soundtracking moments of reckoning and raw reflection through catchy and cathartic upheavals that hit hard and leave a lasting mark.

With new music set for release in 2025, Loviet is further bridging the gap between her praised live shows and recorded catalog, featuring a more rock driven, unblushing portrayal of the artist than ever before.
