LeeLooJamais is a pop collective that first got together back in 1999 and has since then left quite a noticeable mark on the Slovenian pop scene. Their sound, which has changed considerably throughout the past decade, is currently a fusion of funk, dance and contemporary (and in a way also 80s sounding) pop. It is - for Slovenian standards - produced in a remarkably contemporary fashion and it has brought the band a number of gigs outside Slovenian borders. They were this invited to play at the Exit Festival and were hosted by number of Slovenian festivals. They were also the official support act for the Duran Duran gig in Ljubljana.


Line-up

LeeLooJamais consists of six musicians and boats a slightly unusual instrumental set-up for a pop band, with Lovro Ravbar playing the saxophone, Lara Šiljevinac Puntar - Lara Love on vocals, Rok Lopatič on keyboards, Jernej Trobentar on guitar, Miha Koren on bass guitar and David Debevc on drums and occasional vocal accompaniment. This is more or less the original line-up, with the drummer being the only replaced member. His predecessor, Ivo Rimc, is now playing in the band Zebra Dots, another band that is bent on making pop music that follows the current world trends in the genre. The band also had a different singer called Christine, as Lara Love has left the band for some time in 2006 and embarked on a solo career, achieving quite a success with her collaborations with the famed Slovenian pop singer Jan Plestenjak and the producers Shark & Sylvain.

As Rok Lopatič, Ivo Rimc and Lovro Ravbar form the Club & Vehicle production team, the band has the production of their music in their own hands. They also produce for other artists and their work for the Croatian bend E.N.I. has brought them the nomination for production of the bect Croatian pop album in 2008.

Discography and awards

The band released their début album in 2001. Called Pod vplivom [Under the influence], the album had a pop-rock sound, which was then expanded with R&B, soul and hip hop influences on their second release titled Nextasy. The album brought the band into the spotlight. The song Ne Zameri Mi (featuring the Dutch rapper Lord Lefty) was voted for the Best Pop Song 2004 at the Slovenian Radio Festival, the album was named as the best album of 2004 by the daily newspaper Dnevnik and the band itself was nominated for the "Best act on MTV Adria” on MTV European Music Awards 2005.

Their third album Country Music Club, recorded with the temporary singer Christine, also featured some guest musicians, one of them being the Serbian r’n’b musician Alexandra Kovač. It gained them a nomination for the "Best act on MTV Adria” and the same stands for their fourth album. The following album Excuse My Imagination was released in 2011 and it once again brought a number of hits. Their first single Rain dance was produced by the Croatian producer Koolade (also of the Zebra Dots band). Their second single brought them the award “Best Hitorama live act 2010”, while their third one brought them into the finals of EMA. The album is, aside from one song, wholly sung in English.
