EL WEST
Hailing from the desert of Phoenix, Arizona, EL WEST creates a soundscape with ambient, yet driving instrumentals, and powerful operatic vocals. The band consists of Bryant Powell (Vocals/Guitar), Thomas Brenneman (Guitar), Ricky Powell (Bass), and Marty Welker (Drums). Soaring highs and heartfelt lows allow listeners to emotionally and visually connect to the music. A powerful rhythm section allows the subtle melodies to build into powerful crescendos like a wave of sound crashing over you.Their local success led them to being chosen to open up for Capital Cities, Leon Bridges, GROUPLOVE, and The Chainsmokers at March Madness Music Festival 2017. With two releases under their belt, and a third on the way, EL WEST has turned heads across the industry.
The new EP, titled "Illume", lives up to its name. Illume engulfs the room with light from start to finish and encapsulates a unique anthemic sound that delivers driving instrumentals and powerful operatic vocals. EL WESTʼs big sound has staying power and with Illume, delivers their energetic and remarkable stage show all in one EP.
