Lucy Dawn presents 'INTRODUCING THE INSTANT LOVELIES' (a DON'T BELIEVE ANYONE production)

 


The Instant Lovelies, led by the talented singer/songwriter and musician Alana Delgado, are a dynamic girl band known for their rich harmonies and soulful sound. With influences ranging many decades, their music captures the essence of timeless and modern grooves. 

The band also features Mary May Stone and Kendra Michaels, who provide enchanting backing vocals that complement Alana's powerful lead. Together, the three create something captivating, blending their unique talents into a harmonious and unforgettable sound.

Hailing from a small town in the United States, the trio met in high school and initially formed to compete in a local talent show. Their captivating performance earned them positive attention, inspiring them to continue their musical journey. Over the summer, they saved up and formed a full backing band, "The Eloquent Seven," which features a diverse array of instruments, creating a rich, big band sound.

Their hard work and commitment eventually opened doors to professional opportunities, allowing them to record their debut album. The Instant Lovelies' blend of classic and contemporary influences, combined with their heartfelt lyrics and memorable melodies, has quickly made them a favorite among fans of all ages.
