What to expect

We thrive as live performers. The combination of electric piano and drums creates a sound that fills the room. We manifest intimate moments followed by dynamic builds that often explode into rhythms that keep the audience moving with us. There are elements of jazz, pop, and rock in our music. We bring something to the stage that is authentic and unique.

About

Founded in Athens, GA and based in Portland, OR, Major Love Event is an indie pop duo comprised of long-time friends Rebecca Van Damm and C.k. Koch. Rebecca writes, sings and plays whimsical, lovelorn, evocative songs amplified and enriched by C.k's dynamic and eclectic multi-instrumental stylings and production. Though they met as teenagers, it was over a decade before Van Damm and Koch joined musical forces. Playing in separate projects for a number of years, this is the duo's first endeavor as Major Love Event. On May 12, Major Love Event will release "Sandy Sound," the first single off of their self-titled album released on June 16th. The DIY record, which was recorded in their homes, brings a playful and enticing sound to your ears and will have you quickly falling in love with the band.
