In 2008, Lov began a solo career and teamed with producer and collaborator Zac Rae (Death Cab for Cutie, Fiona Apple, My Brightest Diamond). Together they recorded two full-length albums, ‘Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming,’ in 2009 and ‘I Already Love You,’ (an album of cover songs) in 2011. Lov spent 2009 and 2010 touring in Europe and the US. In 2015, Sara Lov and Zac Rae finished recording ‘Some Kind of Champion,’ an album of originals by Sara Lov and collaborators Dustin O’Halloran, Hauschka, Scott Leahy, Zac Rae, and Jonathan Price. saralov.com This event is free, but reservation is required.
