Love Riot will be up close and personal at the Creative Alliance performance space for an intimate show celebrating their coming together after 26 years apart. Join us for a show that looks back to the Then and up to the Now.“Love Riot encourages people coming to the show to bring along canned goods and/or new or gently used clothing. We’ll get the canned goods to MD Food Bank and the clothes to Paul’s Place. In return, we’ll give you a free button in thanks.”
“When a music video titled ‘So Much’ showed up on YouTube last week, it confirmed something that had been rumored
for months: Love Riot, one of Baltimore’s best bands from the 1990s (and probably ever), is back.”
– Dan Rodricks, The Baltimore Fishbowl
Love Riot, in its current incarnation, can trace its origins to Beyond Words, a late-80s new wave quintet popular in metro Baltimore-DC. When the band (and new wave) had run its course, the group’s core – vocalist Lisa Mathews, guitarist Mikel Gehl and bassist Mark Evanko – decided to switch gears, recruiting Willem Elsevier on violin and mandolin and reforming in 1993 as Love Riot, an acoustic quartet.
