Love & Devotion

On Love & Devotion, Sam and Louise are trying – and maybe failing, but still trying, or trying in their own way – to go pop. No matter how hard they try, no matter how many digital elements they incorporate, they can’t manage to lose that sweet, old-time feeling.

"Loose, lo-fi, casually endearing. 'Down on Love' makes the disillusionment after a breakup sound bearable, even as the resentment and hurt still linger...But with a sputtering snare drum, a climbing guitar line and a lilt that teeters between folk-rock and reggae, the song suggests they'll pull through." — The New York Times



"Love & Devotion is retro, but never in a dated way. Instead of revamping a relic of the past...Sam and Louise tap into folk music’s party history...If comparison is king, then Love & Devotion is this decade’s Tusk." — Paste Magazine



“It’s just really beautiful, well-crafted folk pop…just lovely. Lovely songwriting, lovely playing.” — Jeff Tweedy



“Their unadorned talent crafts jingle-sharp hooks with a restless spirit, quietly spinning vintage vibes into pure, melodic gold.” — New Commute
