LONELY TOGETHER

Lonely Together is a Pop/R&B band based in Bellingham, Washington, that reaches listeners with their catchy melodies, genre-blending sound, and all-inclusive message. Lonely Together was started by couple/duo SAFE TRVLS (Zach Cook) and Rosie Matsumoto after they met at Western Washington University and began producing in their home studio. SAFE TRVLS is the lead vocalist & producer/engineer of the group, Rosie is the keyboardist, songwriter & vocalist, and Tyler Teuber is their electric guitar player who joins them for live shows. Lonely Together produces, writes, records, and engineers almost all of their own music and are influenced by many different genres but tend to favor pop, R&B, and hiphop. The main goal of Lonely Together is to reach listeners of all ages, interests, and walks of life through their relatable lyrics and danceable melodies.

Jess Clemons

Jess Clemons’ experience as a traveler, former island dweller, and small-town girl have influenced her folksy, homegrown musical style. Raised in Vermont, she attended music school in Nova Scotia, where she was a side and front woman for various bands, touring around Canada in the summers. A big leap took her to Nantucket, working as a gardener and musician, rowing to and from a houseboat she called home for several years. After finding Baja in 2010 and subsequently the wind-loving community of Hood River, Jess now calls the Gorge home. Playing guitar and piano on stages around the northwest and in Baja in the winters, she has become known for her powerhouse vocals, intimate originals, and tasteful covers of folks like Patty Griffin, Brandi Carlile, and Lori Mckenna, all of whom she has been compared to. Coming out of the woodwork after a couple of years of limited shows, Jess is excited to be back on the road.
