Lookbook was formed in mid-2008 by Maggie Morrison (Digitata) and Grant Cutler (Passions, Tomhanks) in Minneapolis. Combining Cutler’s sparkling, synth-laden sounds and sparse guitar with Morrison’s Pat Benatar-meets-Chrissie Hynde vocals, the band garnered rave reviews and an energetic following for a sound that’s at once familiar and unique. Though the band counts Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and Phil Collins as inspiration, Lookbook’s new-old electro sound has found critical acclaim for its leaner, more minimalist take on ‘80s new wave.
The critically-acclaimed band was named “Picked to Click” in 2008 and “Best New Band” in 2009 by Village Voice-owned weekly Twin Cities publication City Pages; has opened for the likes of Junior Boys, Tapes ‘N Tapes, and Solid Gold; and is receiving regular rotation on Twin Cities-based NPR station 89.3 The Current. Most recently, its song “True to Form” was written up on Pitchfork.com.
