Bio
Since forming in late 2011, Eastwood has emerged to quickly become a crowd favorite. Their strong country influences and original vocals have set them apart from other regional bands. Eastwood consists of Chris Bethel (vocals/acoustic guitar), Shawn Avery (percussion), and Troy Howdyshell (acoustic bass). The three have blended their unique styles and talents together to make music that is described as stripped-down, real country music. Eastwood’s unique appearance combined with their full sound helps reel in crowds and keep them entertained wherever they play. Eastwood has been described as having old country soul mixed with new country sound.
Eastwood has performed with performers such as Easton Corbin, Tyler Farr, Truth and Salvage Co., and McGuffey Lane. Additionally, the band has played in, and headlined, many festivals. In 2013, Eastwood began to expand their audience by performing in multiple states, and several times in Nashville, TN. Eastwood hopes to continue to expand their audience in 2014!
