The Lone Bellow Biography

Zach Williams, the lead vocalist and main composer for The Lone Bellow can very well pinpoint when the Brooklyn-based band accidentally sprang into being. Around nine in the morning in 2010, Williams' longtime friend and guitarist for the Lone Bellows, Brian Elmquist, was working a shift at Dizzy's Diner in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Williams, who had been working as a solo artist until that point, needed a location to test some new songs; for a struggling musician, the cafe served the same purpose as any practice room. So the three did more than jam when he invited fellow musician Kanene Pipkin, who had just returned to New York City after residing in Beijing, to meet them there. On that fateful morning, with the beginnings of a repertoire and an already robust sense of community, they formed the Lone Bellow. Three tracks in, I felt I should stop what I'm doing and focus only on making music with these individuals, Williams reflects. And he did just that. The trio's self-titled debut album has a lively playing style and a friendly attitude. With soaring three-part harmonies and rousing group choruses, the songs are frequently rave-ups rather than ruminations, despite the melancholy undertone in the lyrics. This is especially true of the electric guitar-driven songs The One You Should've Let Go Green Eyes and A Heart of Gold, a we-will-survive anthem that could be about a family or a band. The Lone Bellow does have a strong familial vibe, and inclusivity is a recurrent topic.
