The Loverfaces is a husband-and-wife indie alt-rock band with 2 lead singers and vocal harmonies galore. Chad and Sarah met at a karaoke bar in 2008 and have been writing songs together ever since.

The Loverfaces' dreamy originals and imaginative covers blend emotional songwriting and dual vocals that create a cinematic atmosphere. Performing both as an intimate duo and with a full band, their dynamic live shows are beginning to attract attention from festivals and sync licensing opportunities. The Loverfaces also have a drink named after them at Breadheads Tiki Shak in Sylva.

Our live sets are built to connect with audiences, combining original alternative and indie rock with familiar favorites from the 70's through 90's.

We believe music can be a positive force beyond entertainment, so we've partnered with Musicians Against Overdose Prevention to help distribute Narcan at select shows.

The current lineup includes Chad Jordan on vocals and guitar, Sarah Jordan on vocals and bass, lead guitarist Kevin Ludlow and drummer Jeff Vandell.

The Loverfaces have performed on community stages, at regional venues, and at large public events, bringing the same level of same level of professional polish and infectious joy.

Chad Jordan Chad began his music career in 90s pop-punk bands and later fronted Panthertown in Asheville, with residencies at The Root Bar and The Town Pump in Asheville. A multi-instrumentalist with a focus on guitar and harmonica, Chad brings a songwriter’s perspective to every arrangement. Outside of music, he enjoys gardening, virtual reality, and frisbee golf with his chihuahua, Rebel. Chad is still emo.

Sarah Jordan Sarah’s singing career began as a Katy Perry impersonator in 2011 after being discovered by an event planner at Boogie Nights Casino. In 2014, she was a singing mermaid for a popular party company in California. Sarah sings and plays electric bass in The Loverfaces. Sarah began her music instrument journey on ukulele and keyboard in 2017 and continues to expand her musical range. She enjoys reading, playing Dr. Mario and swimming when not performing or recording.

Kevin Ludlow Kevin Ludlow is a guitarist, writer, and creative professional originally from Austin, Texas. Now based in Nebo, NC, he balances music with a background in software development, business management, and visual arts. Kevin lives in a restored historic church and brings depth, texture, and precision to the band’s sound.

Jeff Vandell A lifelong multi-instrumentalist and studio musician, Jeff brings groove, experience, and versatility to the band. His background spans drums, bass, guitar, keys, and original songwriting. Jeff lives in Weaverville and also works as a paralegal and virtual fellowship leader.

The Loverfaces recently released their first solar-powered music video for “Easy Mind,” a dreamy alternative track that attracted the attention of a national solar company.

The mission of the “ReString Appalachia” initiative is to get as many instruments back into the hands of people who lost them throughout Appalachia due to Hurricane Helene. Created by the roots music history podcast American Songcatcher, this project is supported by over 150 of the leading roots musicians, instrument makers, nonprofits, venues, festivals, actors, artists and media outlets.

We are a "donor match" program, aiming to get instruments of comparable or better quality, if not the exact same make and model that was lost, if possible.
