ABOUT TOPHOUSE
Tophouse is a Montana-raised Americana/Folk band made up of Jesse Davis, Joe Larson, Will Cook, and Andy LaFave.
Created in 2015, the band began as a duo when two Music Composition majors at the University of Montana, guitarist/songwriter Jesse Davis and violinist William Cook, realized they loved playing music together and wanted to start - immediately.
Joseph Larson, a singer, songwriter, and guitar/banjo player, joined the band in 2016. Joe wrote and performed songs, while Jesse's songs like Where Are You and Summer Never Leaves - which, up to this point, had simply been instrumental violin pieces - finally came into their fullness. Joseph's addition vaulted Tophouse to local fame, with the Missoulian naming Tophouse one the top 5 best new bands. Between 2017-2019 they released their self-produced EP Middle of Somewhere and their album Hopes & Fears while performing in festivals like the Bitterroot Celtic Festival, Avery Fest, and the Flathead Celtic Festival.
Tophouse moved to Nashville TN in October of 2019. They, like many musicians, were stranded at their shared home for most of 2020. During this year Tophouse wrote, recorded, and released their second album, Snapshot. After a difficult year of waiting and hoping, Tophouse prevailed, performing in events like the Local Show and going on their first official tours to Montana, Texas, and California.
In 2022 Andy LaFave the pianist joined Tophouse. Andy - an incredible songwriter and musician that regularly releases his own music under his solo project Don't Dance - has performed with William and Joseph since childhood. With Andy's help, Tophouse is working on their newest music release and will be ready to inspire the populace.
ABOUT TAYLOR ASHTON
Born and raised in Canada, Taylor Ashton got his start fronting the beloved Vancouver five-piece Fish & Bird and spent most of his late teens and early twenties touring heavily throughout his home country.
In 2015, he moved to Brooklyn, where he began busking in the subways to make ends meet, and in 2018, he teamed up with Courtney Hartman for a collaborative album that Rolling Stone proclaimed “packs a punch in today’s mainstream.”
Two years later, Ashton released his long-awaited solo debut, The Romantic, earning widespread praise alongside dates with the likes of Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O’Donovan, Madison Cunningham, The Wood Brothers, and more.
