Lo Fi Ho Hum

Started in a shop in Montana and taking its new form in Fort Collins, Lo Fi Ho Hum is anything but. 

Lo Fi Ho Hum was initially the solo project of Jacob Godbey, with songs written over the past few years and recorded entirely in his father’s shop in his hometown of Lewistown, MT. Since then, Lo Fi Ho Hum has become a love letter to Fort Collins, other communities once called home, and even smaller locales within them all evoking places of belonging. Written in isolation, Lo Fi Ho Hum has become an ode to collaboration- with members and resources sourced from Fort Collins’ own The Music District, which Godbey credits for much of the band’s current (and future) success. 

Balancing the peaceful solitude and appreciation for a slower-paced lifestyle that comes with Montana roots with the slightly more metropolitan resources available in Fort Collins, Godbey strives to do justice to inspirations with local ties- Black Flag and Descendents. Channeling the Dave Grohl & Bill Stevenson methodology of writing all parts as primarily a drummer, Godbey strays outside of typical songwriting formulas and brings a unique perspective to each song he writes.
