Jennifer Westwood and Dylan Dunbar are soulful americana artists that hail from Detroit but call the road home. While Jennifer cut her teeth singing gospel, Dylan honed his guitar chops as a kid at local blues joints. Together they blend their roots, powerful vocals and guitar licks that are evocative of Muscle Shoals for their own sound."It's atmospheric yet immediate and approachable. It packs a wallop". - Rochester NY City Newspaper. More recently, Jennifer has performed in Don Was' all-star band and Dylan has served as lead ax man for grammy winning songwriter Kendell Marvel, providing direct support for acts such as Chris Stapleton. They've toured extensively as a duo and full band, sharing bills with and backing diverse acts such as Patti Smith, Delbert McClinton, Shooter Jennings, The Mavericks, Savoy Brown, Paul Thorn, Hayes Carll, Katey Sagal, Dale Watson, Paul Cauthen, Jason Eady and many others.
