Just fyi, they've done LOADS of gigs and festivals this year!! They are currently in festival season and are due to play at Lollapaloza Chicago in a few days!

[brook.]

I found Lovejoy not knowing Wilbur was a streamer. They're just genuinely a good band

[pebble_]

"not done as many festivals/gigs" they're on gig 92 in just over a year and played Lollapalooza and Reading and Leeds...

Since people know Wilbur ( the lead ) is a very popular twitch streamer, everyone thinks that that all there fame but it’s not. They did get there first followers from it but they have grown loads over the past year. Fun fact: Wilbur had a throat infection most of the tour and didn’t cancel because a family friend said they didn’t think he could make it through without cancelling one

[batoby]

they've played almost 100 gigs, shows and festivals this year man. what are you talking about

[nubbyflug]

They literally played in the Isle of Wight festival, Download (I suppose), Wilbur has featured in Genius, and they’ve been gigging across England a lot. And they had a concert aired live on BBC. They did all of these things just after the new EP, Wake Up And It’s Over has released. And it has only been a few months!

[YouTubes_NPC]

They literally did Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees, touring America, toured some countries in Europe, Wilbur's been on Genius, they were interviewed by Govball and Grammys and they're not a real

[xjademisty]

Seeing this a few months later when they announced they’re going to Cochella this year

[clubpankake]

I love seeing that Lovejoy are indeed being taken seriously and that everyone is just awed by their online presence and fandom

[KathiEOSp]

I hate when people say someone or something’s, “not a real ____” just because they had an easy start, or because they’re different from the norm. They’re a band. They exist. They’re a real band. It’s that simple.

[Watermelie]

I became a huge lovejoy fan before I even knew that Wilbur was a streamer, they are genuienly a good band!!!

[TopOceanKitty_Gacha]

[Jungwonie_stan]
