The Loose Salute is a British band founded by drummer Ian McCutcheon of Slowdive and Mojave 3 who also sings and plays guitar. The band consists of Lisa Billson (vocals, keys, percussion), Charlotte King (vocals, percussion, bells and whistles), Pete Greenwood (guitar, bass) Alan Forrester (bass, keys).
In a departure from McCutcheon's past projects, The Loose Salute plays a dreamy, surf rock sounding chorus of music helped live by friends and fans. The band tries to encapsulate togetherness and loneliness as well surfing, partying, and beaches among other things in their music. Ian and the band spend their time in between London and Cornwall and use the Cornwall beaches and life as inspiration for their music. The bands guitarist Pete Greenwood is a singer/songwriter in his own right having recently recorded his first album Sirens for the Heavenly Records label. The Loose Salute are signed to Heavenly Records in the UK and Graveface Records in the US.
