The dance-rock outfit Young Love is headed by Dan Keyes, who served as frontman for the post-grunge band <a href="spotify:artist:6NUQnrGypAr384XsKeOw3Q">Recover</a> from 2001 to 2004. After releasing three albums with that Austin-based group, Keyes relocated from Texas to New York City in search of new environs and a change of pace. Within a year's time, he had amassed a wealth of new material that had more in common with <a href="spotify:artist:3MM8mtgFzaEJsqbjZBSsHJ">Bloc Party</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3nUaOkK9vnMx4TlX1JAwq4">Action Action</a> than the aggressive sounds of <a href="spotify:artist:6NUQnrGypAr384XsKeOw3Q">Recover</a>. Young Love was born, and a record deal with Island Def Jam surfaced before the end of 2005.
With help from a handful of backing musicians, Keyes began testing his new music in Lower East Side nightspots during the summer of 2006. Meanwhile, shows alongside <a href="spotify:artist:2cyaobEho8uxhqLxwG7j6i">Head Automatica</a> allowed him to hone his rhythmic, dancefloor-bound material in front of compatible audiences. "Discotech," an advance single from Young Love's debut album, was released that October, and the full-length Too Young to Fight It followed in January 2007. Keyes returned two years later with another release, One of Us, having helmed the majority of the instrumental duties himself. ~ Andrew Leahey, Rovi
