Grouplove’s infectious live performances have always made them a crowd favorite at music festivals around the world. Earlier this month, the band returned to the main stage at Lollapalooza in Chicago , performing “Remember That Night” live for the first time during a set that Billboard awarded “Most Explosive Energy” in their roundup of the final day’s best moments , heralding their “viciously flashing lights, emphatic howls and electrifying energy.” Grouplove also received rave reviews from USA Today and Los Angeles Times for their performance at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival this past spring, and still has much anticipated stops at Rock En Seine in Paris and the Reading and Leeds Festivals in the UK this summer.
Grouplove first came together in 2009 and were quickly hailed for
their standout live performances, both as headliners and at such international
festivals as Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Reading + Leeds
Festivals, and Glastonbury. Now, with three acclaimed, studio albums
and countless sold out shows around the world, the band has established
themselves as one of music’s most exhilarating acts.
The quintet’s most
recent release, “BIG MESS” – produced by the band’s own Ryan Rabin, under the
moniker Captain Cuts, and Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Band Of Horses, The Shins) -
arrived last September, supported by a slate of national television
performances of its lead single and Top 5 Alternative hit “Welcome To Your Life” on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” NBC’s “TODAY,” and CBS’ “Late
Show with Stephen Colbert” and “Late Late Show with James Corden.”
Outlets ranging from Rolling Stone and Entertainment Weekly to Interview and NYLON heralded
the band and their latest offering while fans packed their headlining “Big Mess
World Tour.” Grouplove’s second single “Good Morning” also received enthusiastic support from Alternative radio, with
its cinematic companion video featuring actress Elle Fanning.
“BIG MESS” follows 2013's "SPREADING RUMOURS," which was also met with a raft of praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, USA Today, Entertainment Weekly, Los Angeles Times, NYLON, and National Public Radio who called it "ludicrously easy to love." The collection - produced by Rabin - featured singles "Shark Attack" and the RIAA-certified Gold “Ways To Go.” In 2014, Grouplove contributed the original song "Let Me In" to "The Fault in Our Stars - Music From the Motion Picture," the musical companion to the blockbuster film based on The New York Times bestseller. That same year, the band was tapped to create the theme song to the Netflix Original Series "BoJack Horseman." Last year, vocalist/keyboardist Hannah Hooper collaborated with Volcom for a Lady Grouplove capsule collection of clothing inspired by her personal style and artwork.
Grouplove’s debut full length "NEVER TRUST A HAPPY SONG"
arrived in 2011, featuring a trio of breakout singles – the
RIAA-certified Gold "Colours," "Itchin' On A
Photograph," and the RIAA-certified Platinum hit "Tongue Tied"
which spent 3 consecutive weeks at #1 on the Alternative radio chart.
Grouplove is: L-R Ryan Rabin (Drums), Andrew Wessen (guitar/vocals), Hannah Hooper Vocals/Keys), Daniel Gleason (bass) and Christian
Zucconi (vocals, guitar).
