The Lone Bellow is an American musical group from Brooklyn.
History
The Lone Bellow began as a songwriting project for Zach Williams, whose wife had suffered temporary paralysis following a horseback riding accident.[1] Following the tragedy, Williams learned how to play the guitar.[citation needed] Eventually he pursued a career in music due to his wide vocal range, and his lyrics. Williams and Brian Elmquist had known each other as college students in Lynchburg, Virginia.[2]
The Brooklyn-based group started their career when the Lone Bellow's guitarist and old friend, Brian Elmquist met at Dizzy's Diner in Park Slope.[3] Initially known as Zach Williams and the Bellow, the band shortened its name to The Lone Bellow before putting out any official releases.[4] The group signed with Descendant Records, a newly formed imprint of Sony BMG,[5] and released its self-titled debut, produced by Charlie Peacock, in January 2013.[6][7]
