Artist Spotlight: Western Education

Bringing to you another edition of Artist Spotlight today as we come across the sounds of Western Education! Hailing from Lowell, MA the band consists of Greg on lead vocals and keyboards, Georgio on guitars and backing vocals, Will handling bass and production duties, and Mark on drums and backing vocals. The band's sound is a hard nosed blend of fast paced alternative rhythms conjured upon a slight electronic wave that when combined, is a totally different ballgame and is unlike the sound of any other local act currently out there today. The band recently advanced to the Semifinals in the Rock N Roll Rumble, and they've been a band that I've heard of in name only and was always curious to check out their sound, and I'm impressed with their musical mindset that they took with them heading into the studio to record these tracks. They have a definite sense of who they want to be as musicians, and are focused on the future and where it may take them moving forward. An incredible local act deserving of some attention here on the site. Some tracks recommended for your listening time include "Rivals" and "All I Am".
