With an exuberant name befitting its unique origin story, the members of GROUPLOVE first came together in 2009 at an artist commune on the Greek isle of Crete. Having met a week prior in Manhattan's Lower East Side, founders Hannah Hooper and Christian Zucconi poured this serendipitous joie de vivre into the band's ecstatic performances and later their marriage. GROUPLOVE would assemble in Los Angeles to record a self-titled EP, scoring buzzy reviews and performance slots at Lollapalooza and Glastonbury. Mischievous indie-pop LP Never Trust a Happy Song arrived in 2011, landing single “Colours” on the soundtrack for popular videogame FIFA 12 and launching “Tongue Tied” into pop culture ubiquity with major commercial spots. Subsequent albums Spreading Rumours and Big Mess leaned into jittery electro and bubbly pop-rock, respectively, and in 2021, Hooper and Zucconi relocated to Atlanta eager to reconnect with their artsy beginnings. Two years later, GROUPLOVE unveiled I Want It All Right Now, an album of introspective songs that were as giddy as ever.
Members of GROUPLOVE include, or have included, Christian Zucconi, Andrew Wessen, and Sean Gadd.
