Mixing a high-energy performance style with lyrics that are at the same time raw and accessible, Let It Happen has matured into a one of a kind Pop/Rock band, developing a loyal and steadily growing fan base along the way. Drawing from musical influences such as Third Eye Blind, Jimmy Eat World, and Relient K, Let It Happen has developed a catalogue of songs so personal and distinctive, you can’t help but hit repeat!
Forming in 2009, the band quickly went to work writing and performing in local venues, gaining critical and popular praise for their memorable melodies and unguarded lyrics.
Fronted by guitarist, songwriter, and lead vocalist Drew Brown, the songs of Let It Happen give voice to a generation on the bridge. “Regardless of age, life is complicated, and our generation is coming of age in a complicated time. Our music speaks to that.” says drummer Sean Highley. Still, the music of Let It Happen is dynamic and fully energized. Powered by Michael Vogel’s edgy lead guitar and Nathan Joiner’s driving bass, the music dances, even when wrestling with tough topics. As Drew Brown says, “We don’t preach. We want our audience to know we’re right there with them, and going through the same things. It’s important to us that we convey that when we play live.”
The band will certainly be in full force for the foreseeable future. On the heels of their last EP, Pack the Van!, Let It Happen has just recorded an acoustic EP, Colors Changing, and have an early summer release in the works as well. The band has a few tours in the works for this summer in support of these releases so be on the lookout!
