The eight-piece Seattle-based formation True Loves parties anytime, anywhere and everyone is invited. What originally began in 2014 as a jam session organized by drummer David McGraw, bassist Bryant Moore and guitarist Jimmy James has since grown into a worldwide phenomenon, thanks in part to the arrival of percussionist Iván Galvez, trombonists Jason Cressey and Greg Kramer and saxophonists Gordon Brown and Skerik. True Loves’ rock-solid live reputation has helped them amass millions of streams on YouTube, which is extraordinary for an instrumental collective. With two albums now under their belt – Famous Last Words (2017) and Sunday Afternoon (2021) – it’s the ideal time to invite festival visitors to the band’s rousing funk block party.
