Loosegoats was a Swedish lo-fi rock group formed in 1994 by Christian Kjellvander, Johan Hansson, Jens Löwius and Mårten Löfvander. They released their first mini CD, "Small Lesbian Baseball Players", in May 1995. Shortly thereafter Mårten left and got replaced by Anders Tingsek.

In 1996 Jens left the band. They replaced him with Magnus Melliander, who was first hired as a live-musician but quickly became a full time member.
