ON TOUR WITH SARA LOV

Honey-voiced songstress Sara Lov will perform her intimate, sparse compositions tonight at The Troubadour as she tours the country opening for longtime friend and collaborator Sea Wolf. Lov’s recently-released debut solo LP, Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming (August 25 on Filter US Recordings) has been described by LA Weekly as, “a melodic musical diary enriched with swaying string sections (‘Fountain’) and tinkling toy pianos (‘Touched’).” Produced by Zac Rae (Fiona Apple, Annie Lennox, My Brightest Diamond) and mixed by Darrell Thorp (Radiohead, Beck), the songs on Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming deftly toe the line between dark and angelic.

The former lead singer of the dream-pop duo Devics, Lov’s foray into a solo career allowed her to experiment, resulting in songs she self-described as "simple and sad with a shot of Scotch." For this tour Lov will be showcasing her unmistakable, "irresistibly seductive" voice (NPR), as she will perform armed with just her voice, a guitar, and a vintage vinyl record player handling the backing tracks.

If you can, get over to the Troubadour tonight and check her out! We will be there, and we'll have a full report coming soon.
