"More spirit than gimmick...music for the perpetually dancing community." -Samantha Gorskey, KVMR FM
IZABELLA was born out of years of musical connections. Like many bands before, and many yet to come, the search for new music is what ultimately brings these musicians together. The love of the improvisational/jam community is what drives and inspires them to push forward. Sean Lehe (guitar/vocals), Lucas Carlton (drums) and Murph (bass/guitar) spent four years recording and touring with Bay Area jamband, Home At Last. With a desire for a fresh start, the trio decided in the spring of 2006 to branch out with a new face and renewed sense of purpose. After years of networking in the scene, close connections were made with some of the most talented players around. As a result, the trio has grown to a six-piece machine following a musical merger with Sacramento based “Four Guys From Reno”. The Sacramento boys bring the soulful energy of Brian Rogers (vocals/bass/percussion/guitar) the blissful embellishments of Andre Fylling (keyboards/vocals) and the chunky funk of Sam Phelps (bass/guitar/keys/vocals). Brian, Andre and Sam have been musical brothers since High School and have already created an impressive legacy of solo recordings.
The intent of this group is to develop a musical space that is exploratory, challenging AND accessible. Inspired genre-bending songwriting, danceable energy, and emotive vocals are the key ingredients toward this end. No musical experience, however, is complete without strong community. As IZABELLA was born from musical connections, so will it thrive and grow with positive connections made in the community.
The IZABELLA boys are currently finishing up their second official studio release, "In the West", to be released this fall. The first release, "Dream When You Sleep", was recently picked up for distribution in Japan by Grey Dog's Records.
