Love Jerks has a little street cred. The band is fronted by the lead singers of two established Bay-Area bands—Bryan Garza of Scissors for Lefty (vocals & guitar) and Rebecca Garza-Bortman of Happy Fangs and My First Earthquake (vocals & bass).

Love Jerks has a little street cred. The band is fronted by the lead singers of two established Bay-Area bands—Bryan Garza of Scissors for Lefty (vocals & guitar) and Rebecca Garza-Bortman of Happy Fangs and My First Earthquake (vocals & bass). They are influenced by the greats, Pulp, The Pretenders, Belle & Sebastian, with a dash of 60s French Pop. Compared to modern acts, they are on par with Grimes, Prince Rama, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Tame Impala and Whitest Boy Alive, this duo creates unforgettable future wave anthems and dream pop ballads to make you fall in love! A few years back, Bryan Garza of Scissors For Lefty headed out to the iconic San Francisco venue, Bottom of The Hill to see a friend's band play. Before he could finish the last sip of his drink, the next band, fronted by Rebecca Bortman, took the stage in a flurry. He was instantly smitten. They didn’t speak that night, but within months they were in love. A year later, their two bands shared the stage at Bottom of The Hill, where Bryan proposed in true rock opera fashion (she said yes, actually F*ck yeah!). Together, Rebecca & Bryan created a totally insane way to celebrate their life-long promises to each other—they wrote & performed a full-fledged rock opera as their wedding ceremony. The fun didn't stop there, they are now bringing a new magic to stages across the West Coast with an unreleased full length album waiting in the wings. Less
