Love Spells announces debut album ‘LOVE IS THE LAW’

Throughout Sir Taegan Harris aka Love Spells’ life, love has been the center of the 21-year-old’s ethos and on his debut album LOVE IS THE LAW out July 24 via RCA Records, we’re experiencing his vulnerability and emotion on full display. The compelling debut refines his dreamy, atmospheric sonics while exploring a rhythmic, groove-based sound that carves a lane uniquely his own. “Our lives revolve around love,” he reflects, wise beyond his years. “We do so many things because of it and so many problems come out of it.”

Alongside the announcement of his debut album, Harris shares ‘Keep It To Yourself’, a smooth and soulful track featuring his distinct vocal falsetto over soft drums and alluring guitar riffs as he croons about the intensities of a relationship. The song premiered yesterday on KCRW’s “Morning Becomes Eclectic” and the Tanner Deutsch-directed video features Harris winning his love over with his seductive choreography and graceful presence. The video directly ties to the cinematic visual for the sweet, sultry single ‘Crutch’ released in April – both using dance and movement as an expression of emotive storytelling.

“This song is about realizing everybody doesn’t deserve access to what’s sacred between two people,” Harris says of the track. “Sometimes love and its problems sound better in private. Some things you just gotta keep to yourself.”

‘Crutch’ initially premiered on Kevin Abstract and Dominic Fike’s Apple Music Geezer Radio earlier this year. The song charted on NACC Top 200 and received support from outlets such as CLASH, Wonderland, NME, Rough Trade, Pigeons & Planes and NOTIONmagazine who dubbed him “an indie bedroom pop artist crafting deceptively minimal songs saturated with longing, intimacy, and a quiet, persistent limerence that feels both cinematic and emotionally attuned to the present moment.” 

The release of both tracks from the forthcoming debut arrives alongside a run of sold-out underplay shows across Los Angeles, cementing Harris’ reputation as a magnetic live performer. Later this year, Harris will play multiple festivals including All Points East, Pukkelpop, Rock en Sein, All Things Go and Lollapalooza along with a 28-date headline tour kicking off in Europe this summer with a show at London’s MOTH club on August 27th. Artist pre-sale starts on Tuesday, June 2 at 10:00am local and general on-sale begins on Friday, June 5 at 10:00am local. List of all the tour dates below and get your tickets HERE.

At 18, Houston-born singer Love Spells poured his passion for love into music, manifesting a career out of his ambition as he battled homelessness for years. Eventually, he traveled to California where he lived with a friend he met online, traveling to different music studios everyday to perfect his sound. After six months, he returned to Houston and received a call from Kevin Abstract who invited him to work on his 2025 album Blushwhich connected him to his now frequent collaborators, Dominic Fike and Deb Never.

That life changing experience pushed him to return to Los Angeles and work on LOVE IS THE LAW with Danny Parra, Boy Deco, Brad Hale, Rodaidh McDonald, Alex Craig and the legendary Rick Nowels. Harris yearned to create an album that was reminiscent of his nights spent at Numbers, a beloved dance club and long-standing safe haven for alternative communities in Houston, TX. There, he would dance to ‘70s, ‘80s and New Wave music and wanted to inject that feeling into his music, seeking out similar spaces in LA and leaning on those eras in the studio. Classic movies such as Dirty Dancing andFootloose were another source of inspiration, wanting the record to have a similar “theatrical yet authentic” feeling.
