Details:
Currently residing in the independent music hotbed of Portland, Oregon, all three members of Wester Daywick spent their more formative years in rural western Washington. Like a surprisingly large amount of other budding musicians in the last 25 years, Louis Panush, Trent Finlay, and Robert Denman cultivated a passion for music in the small towns of the Pacific Northwest. Having known of each other for few years as part of the limited musical community they grew up in, Louis and Trent began their friendship and creative relationship in a short-lived band called The Conversation. From 2000-2002 Trent drummed and Louis sang as The Conversation played primarily around Washington State. After the dissolution of The Conversation, Trent and Louis went their separate ways, both assuming they would probably not be playing together again. However, proximity would later help to force collaboration between these two that would prove to be the most involved and lengthy they had ever experienced. In 2003, Trent and Louis were attending Evergreen State College in Olympia and looked to each other to better their housing situation. Both were continuing to write music despite their focus on their studies and they began sharing musical ideas with one another in large part because they were the only two around. When they began to work on these ideas together it very quickly turned into the most intriguing and enjoyable work either had yet made. Under the moniker Sweet Lou and The Trent Foundation, shows were played intermittingly between academic obligations. Around late 2004, a young man named Robert began showing up to their gigs and hinting not to subtly his intent by claiming to hear phantom baselines that the drums, guitar, and vocals were in desperate need of. Robert joined the band and was rechristened Bobby D; the band then became Wester Daywick. After a year of developing their sound with the addition of Bobby D, he became as integral a part as the founding two members, and all three moved to Portland in 2006. The last few years have seen Wester Daywick play throughout the Northwest with frequency, write and record dozens of songs, go through three additional members, and subsequently return to the three person line up that was always its creative core.
The culmination of their artistic growth thus far is the release of their self-titled record in the summer of 2009. Wester Daywick captures the chemistry and cohesion of Wester Daywick’s live show unlike anything they have recorded thus far. The album properly displays Trent’s intricate and powerful drum work, bass lines that melodically weave their way through the other instrumentation giving Bobby D an uncommon prominence for his position, Louis’ straightforward yet dynamic guitar work that never wastes a moment, and the unique soaring vocals that are unmistakably his. In a day and age where it has become increasingly difficult to say so, the sum of the parts come together to create a sound very much their own.
