About US

Joanne O'Dowd & Andrew Perron

LUST4LUV is the music duo Joanne O'Dowd & Andrew Perron.

INTRIK8 is the digital art by Joanne O'Dowd & occasionally Andrew Perron.

The lust4luv name was chosen originally in 1996 from a sample of a couple reminiscing where she says "I think you're confusing LUST FOR LOVE", to which he replies "It was the best time of our lives... and you know it!" which we found very relevant and sums up our unique sound.
