Welcome to the 100 Love Sonnets website; we've moved. Keep reading to find out why.
Once upon a time, back in 2000, there was a band with lofty and poetic aspirations, who named itself 100 Love Sonnets after a Pablo Neruda poetry book. This was all fine and dandy until people started showing up at concerts expecting Barry Manilow / mellow folk ballads / soppy romantic pap by the bucketful. And you have to understand that the 100 Love Sonnets men (and woman) were anything but lite . At its most tender moments, their music still had a considerable bite.
So, after much deliberation and caffeine, in December 2002, on the cusp of a new year, 100 Love Sonnets became violet i . Same lofty and poetic aspirations without the wimpy name. A sophomore CD was completed, flattering new photos were taken, enticing new logos and a web site were created. violet i even got a nice write-up in a local newspaper (flattering photo and all).
