The Love Elektrik is pure, sweaty, synth-and-guitar-driven funk pop personified. Tailor-made for radio rotation with blasts of retro, this Nashville-based outfit — the brainchild of frontman Anthony Rankin and bassist Victor Brodén — fuses the ethereal funk of the 1980s with a millennial pop aesthetic. Amplified by magnetic live performances and Rankin's unmistakable fiery voice, their songs bristle with infectious rhythmic attitude, major-league melodies and bulletproof hooks.
