L-Mo, winners of the Oct 09 York regional heat of MEmetro Music’s “online and on tour” competition to support VV Brown on tour, with voting for the winner at link, are a three-piece band based in Leeds, UK who play upbeat adrenaline fuelled acoustic mayhem to shake asses and spread smiles. Formed at the beginning of 2009, the guys have just finished recording their debut album 'Got Gumption?'. Following a string of successful live shows throughout the UK, the band members all took the decision that quitting their jobs to focus on writing, promoting and performing was the life for them.
With singer/songwriter Luke's original vocals and inventive guitar work combining with bass player Phil and drummer Evan's grounded yet creative rhythm section, L-Mo have been causing quite a stir throughout the UK. Renowned for their energetic and charismatic live performances, the band have created a truly original sound that is sure to tempt and enthral music fans the world over.
A 'Mo' is a mass of cells, packed full of a naturally occurring energy, this abundance keeps it constantly moving forward to better and brighter places. This rare species is native to Australia, America, England and Ireland. Recent sightings have been reported in the north of England in the city of Leeds.
They have been reported to travel by air, wind, sea and also by a custom eco-friendly longboard steam mobile.
