Get Back Loretta

Get Back Loretta surprised everyone in 2005 when they won "Best New Artist" at the San Diego Music Awards. Forming almost overnight, the band quickly found the sound they wanted and began to win over fans. Their on stage antics and mind blowing performances won them respect among musicians and venues alike. Get Back Loretta is often described as: upbeat and refreshingly soulful. Their engaging stage presence, unique songwriting abilities, and powerful vocals are what set them apart from the generic mainstream. They have received rave reviews from Absolute Punk, made an appearance on FOX ROX (Fox underground music show), discussed their future goals on FM 94/9 Sunday interview with Tim Pyles, rocked a sold-out Troubadour with indie giant Circa Survive. In a recent review of the Get Back Loretta EP in the magazine San Diego CityBeat, Troy Johnson wrote, I thought I had discovered the best unknown band in San DiegoBest out-of-nowhere goodness Ive heard While we tend to agree with his assessment, the current success the band enjoys has its concrete genesis in the prior experiences of its members. For the task of finding his dream band, Bradford commissioned long time friend Ben Johnston to play the role of tasteful guitar-smith. In search of a tight drummer, Steven enlisted Isaac Cass, whom he had met during a previous tour. Isaacs youthful charm and expert drum chops would be instrumental to the bands aura. Still needing more core members, Steven remembered his talented friend Kevin Martin from Jack the Original. So he decided to call Kevin up to see if he'd want to play some music. They quickly connected as a songwriting duo began to collaborate. After a year of playing and writing, Get Back Loretta is now ready to release their debut album "Over The Wall" on Pacific Records.
