Described sonically as the British love child of George Michael and Katy Perry, Lovestarrs’ energetic pop records promise to boost your mood and make you dance. With influences from powerhouse songwriters such as Bonnie McKee and Ryan Tedder, lead singer Sarah’s positive & lighthearted personality shines through relatable lyrics that emphasize love, individuality and maintaining a playful attitude. Visually, the duo pay homage to legends like David Bowie and Bananarama, with a little No Doubt sprinkled in as well. As sister & brother, Sarah and Hamish McIntosh were born in Oxford and raised in a little village called Highclere in Hampshire outside of London. Their parents’ musical taste was mostly 80’s vinyl, which sparked their interest in artists such as Tears For Fears, Prince, and Depeche Mode. Strongly influenced by 80’s & 90’s pop music, Hamish learned how to play Guitar at the age of 8, followed by Bass at the age of 10.
After years of playing the Violin and eventually Drums, Sarah discovered her Grandmother’s 1980’s Yamaha keyboard ready to be thrown out from her attic, instantly fell in love with the retro sounds and drum loops and immediately began writing songs with it. In 2011, Sarah and Hamish accomplished what they set out for when they signed to EMI Records under the band name: The Good Natured. The whirlwind soon picked up as the duo began touring the world with bands such as Imagine Dragons and Bastille. While signed to EMI, The Good Natured also had the incredible opportunity to headline BBC’s Introducing Stage in Glastonbury, which aided in building an even stronger presence online.

With a debut album completed, Sarah and Hamish received the shocking news that the label had been bought out, and that their time with EMI was to meet an abrupt end. When their record deal dissolved, unable to keep their music that had gotten them to this point, they took the time to mourn the loss of all their hard work, before deciding to take on the challenge of re-branding themselves as independent artists and continue on with their journey. Within a year, Sarah and Hamish had bounced back from a low-point and released their first EP independently online. The release helped the band reach well over 100,000 followers on platforms like Soundcloud, and now, as Lovestarrs, although their name is different, their fan-base has continued to grow and eagerly await the duo’s next release.
Lovestarrs: Get Your Sexy Lyrics:
We sit at home
Watching trashy movies, butter scotch
Popcorn tasting says you’re clueless
Said how I’m really feeling
We’re on our own, you gotta know
So call my name and say can I
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on
Hardest road
Odds stack to the bed and mark the door
Tearing up the phones with your hands
Fudge, shut off the snack bar
Sugar king I’ll be your queen
So come on and take it all
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on
Shut up, shut up, don’t talk
Your clothes on the floor
Be accustomed lovers, we don’t need no others
Shut up, shut up, don’t talk
Your clothes on the floor
Exploding in color, you and me inside this
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on.
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on.
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on.
Get your s*** on.Get your s*** on.
