Loving have announced a full North America tour in support of their highly acclaimed debut album, If I Am Only My Thoughts. The tour kicks off late April in SLC and routes them throughout the country, hitting both coasts, the midwest and major cities in between. For a full list of dates see below. Tickets go on sale this Friday, February 28 at 10AM local here.



After a highly acclaimed self-released EP, which organically found success online, Loving 
released their debut full-length album via Last Gang Records late last month. The band have quickly amassed a following and are recognized by their intimate, lo-fi psych folk songs which inspire a sense of ease, yet are deceptively intricate. Loving offer a space to ruminate in life's uncertainties and acknowledge the often strange journey of being alive. 




"simple, sun-dappled folk-pop...Their full-length debut 'If I Am Only My Thoughts' radiates approachability" PITCHFORK

"draws from an earthy palette of folk-inflected indie rock with grounded, psychedelic, and mesmerizing arrangements" NOISEY

"mellow, folky indie rock with a twist of psychedelia" BROOKLYN VEGAN



"a solid set of dreamy, psych-tinged folk-pop combining a warm, often-spare sound with gentle vocals and soothing melodies" KEXP


"the band display an innate talent for lush compositions and soothing melody, capturing a delicate blend of melancholy and optimism." EXCLAIM



"beautiful, indie rock lullabies with just a touch of psychedelia" INDIE SHUFFLE


"warm, dreamy tickling of guitars and the distinctive vocals that place you right there with them in British Columbia, hiding from the unforgiving downpour of rain with a steaming hot cuppa' chamomile" EARMILK

"soundtrack of lush guitars and an easygoing ambience" SUBSTREAM

"a full dose of good vibes... This is about the best medicine to chill your life that you are going to find today" WHEN YOU MOTOR AWAY

"incredibly deep with its lyrics but stays smooth with its sounds" MXDWN



Victoria, BC's Loving is the collaboration of David Parry and brothers Lucas and Jesse Henderson. With lyrics written by both Jesse and Lucas, the lush, homespun collection of songs was recorded to tape, mixed, and mastered by David in his self-described "cold, dismal" basement studio in Victoria. In contrast, these songs are balmy and inviting, comprised of a series of open-ended questions that circle existential themes.
