“When we got together there was this instantaneous connection that neither

one of us expected to find and when we first started hanging out it was like we

had been friends for years. We started Lovella a little after we started dating

and quickly noticed that becoming a duo went hand in hand with starting a

new relationship. We had to build trust, a respect for each other’s creative

voices, allow ourselves to be vulnerable, to laugh at ourselves and at each

other, to cry, allow each other to be mad and not take it personally and to

appreciate how passionate we are about the music we create. Being a duo has

had its own set of growing pains but experiencing and navigating these two

relationships simultaneously has made both relationships stronger. That is the

heart of our music. It is everything we’ve experienced; it is everything our

families and friends have experienced. Our songs allow us to relive a moment

and we love sharing that with you and hopefully no matter where someone is

in their life, our music, our stories will resonate with all of you listening. “
