Artist Bio
The True Loves, an 8 piece instrumental Soul group out of Seattle, WA that got their start during the summer of 2015 when drummer, David McGraw, began organizing jam sessions with bassist Bryant Moore and guitarist Jimmy James. The group would organize at a venue, in most cases the infamous Seamonster Lounge, and improvise grooves and melodies on the spot for hours on end. The band performed (and still occasionally does) under the name “Horse & Tiger Presents” – from gig to gig the players rotated in and out until a solid lineup was reached. Guitarist Jimmy James met Grace Love, a heavy hitting vocalist with a deep and true feel and uncanny ability to improvise song lyrics on the spot. Songs started flowing and soon after the band was in the studio recording their debut album ‘Grace Love & the True Loves’. The album features such radio hits as ‘Fire’, ‘Nobody Sweeter’ and the classic ballad, ‘Mean to Me’ and was #19 on KEXP’s Top 100 Albums of 2015 list.
In January of 2017, the True Loves went back into the studio to record their debut instrumental album ‘Famous Last Words’ which was released in July of the same year. The album features high-energy bangers and mid tempo grooves that showcase what the band does best: unrelenting pocket and groove. To promote the album release, the band headlined a sold-out TimberFest featuring the vocal talents of Daptone Records Saun & Starr and Seattle’s very own Adra Boo of Fly Moon Royalty. Reeling from a recent sold-out headlining show at the Tractor Tavern, the True Loves are looking to get back into the studio and out on the road to new music fans nationally and internationally. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for what the band releases next and where you can next see the band live.
