Artist description David Turbow (Scratch Magazine/Dork Magazine):"Lo-Fi Champion is a 3 piece-pop rock group with heaps of '60s, '70s, and even early '80s bounce. Tough to draw comparisons to other groups, because they're doin' their own thing. Rich Kane(OC Weekly):Full of sagacious, superfine, Beatle-y, Jonathan Richman-y tunes, totally wunnerful, completely endearing, one of our world’s perfect pop treasures, a glittery emerald planted among a coal pit of suck-rock

Music Style indie-rock, power-pop, Mod, garage

Musical Influences Beatles, Modern Lovers, The Clash, Built To Spill, The Kinks

Similar Artists Jonathan Richman, The Jam, The Clash ,Weezer, Violent Femmes
