The Powell Brothers

The Powell Brothers is an Americana/Texas Country group from Kingwood, Texas. The group was formed by brothers Taylor and Blake Powell in February 2014.^[1]

Background

Blake and Taylor Powell are both multi-instrumentalists. They first toured together in 2006 as a hired backing band,^[1] and continued to play as such until Blake graduated from Kingwood High School in 2007, and Taylor in 2010. Post-graduation, both of the brothers briefly attended Berklee College of Music. In their individual careers, the brothers have worked as songwriters, producers, band members, music directors, and session players^[2] for more than 30 artists internationally, including: Drew Cline, Grace Pettis, Granger Smith, Haley Cole, Jon Wolfe, Sam Riggs and the Night People, Tucker Jameson, and Will Makar. In February 2014 they were both on the verge of pursuing separate careers on opposite sides of the United States, but instead, decided to form The Powell Brothers and focus on making their own music.^[3] In March 2016, they added Joseph Daniel as an official member. Chad Tolar came on board in June 2016 and in addition to playing keyboards, Chad is the band's manager and booking agent.
