Listening to the Seattle-based, original instrumental funk & soul group, True Loves, is like walking down a favorite neighborhood street, slapping five with your friends, checking up with clerks in their stores, and smelling the familiar scents of your most cherished locale. The band is its own block party. What began in 2014 as a jam session between three of the city’s best- drummer David McGraw, bassist Bryant Moore and guitarist Jimmy, James- has since blossomed into a global force that features percussionist, Iván Galvez, Trombonist Greg Kramer, and saxophonists Gordon Brown and Skerik. Together, the group’s live performances have garnered them much acclaim and millions of streams on YouTube. In 2017, the True Loves recorded their debut instrumental LP, Famous Last Words, which received worldwide adulation, earning them performances at coveted music festivals. In 2018, the group released the “Dapper Derp/Kabuki” 45’ on WeCoast Records followed by 2019’s Colemine Records “Famous Last Words/Mary Pop Poppins” 45 single. The band released their sophomore album “Sunday Afternoon” in 2021, on Color Red Music. 2024 saw the band release their latest single “Good Weed and Red Wine” followed by their second European tour.
