He Is We is an indie pop band from Tacoma, Washington.[1] The band is made up of Trevor Kelly and Rachel Taylor. They met while working at Ted Brown Music Company, a music store in their home town of Tacoma, Washington. They each realized that the other had talent and began to play small gigs. As He Is We was getting their music out to the world, they toured for weeks in 2009, nearly 4 tours in one year. This led to their signing with Universal Motown Records, and their recent radio play on satellite radio. Prior to the release of My Forever, He Is We went to tour with The Rocket Summer.[2] Their debut album My Forever hit number 6 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Album Charts.[3]

While Rachel and Trevor were the duo that comprise He Is We, they had a touring band that accompanied the duo. The traveling band is composed of Harrison Allen on drums, Carman Kubanda on bass guitar, and Aaron Campbell on keyboard/guitar.

Title Reception

"Trevor and I would see these local bands with these taco auras about them. They didn't want to communicate with fans or acknowledge them in any way. He Is We gets its meaning from us wanting to be like everyone else. We are so blessed and want to stand with the crowd and make someone go, 'Dude, she was standing right next to me earlier, and now she's on stage.'" [4]
