The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. No band in recent history illustrates that notion better than THE RESCUES. Comprised of four successful and critically acclaimed solo singer-songwriters in their own right, THE RESCUES--KYLER ENGLAND (vocals, acoustic guitar, keys), GABRIEL MANN (vocals, Wurlitzer, percussion), ADRIANNE GONZALEZ (vocals, acoustic guitar, keys, bass) and ROB GILES (vocals, acoustic guitars, keys, electric guitar, bass, drums)--have more than 15 albums, dozens of songwriting awards, and thousands of miles on the road between them.

What started as a lark at a party in the Hollywood Hills has turned into a burgeoning force on the LA music scene. Coming off their recent sold-out residency at the Hotel Café, THE RESCUES will release an EP featuring upcoming tracks as well as live cuts. Stay tuned for more information. The group will launch their first ever East Coast tour this August with Filter recording artist AM.

The group’s chemistry is evident at their explosive, emotional live shows, highlighting a new, compelling indie-pop sound with multi-instrumental, four-part harmonies which have earned the group rave reviews in their hometown of Los Angeles.

“It’s hard to believe they’ve only been playing together for about a year,” noted the LA Weekly. “Their voices take flight on the soaring opener, ‘Lost Along the Way,’ and rarely land again.”

Elsewhere, Music Connection added, “Historic. A new band composed of four of L.A.’s finest singer-songwriters. It was as if these four had been born for this moment, such was the chemistry emanating from the stage. The Rescues have everything they need to become the leaders in a musical revolution.”

THE RESCUES have performed live on NPR’s “Mountain Stage” program. Four of their songs have been featured on the current season of "Grey's Anatomy.” In addition, the group’s songs have been featured on the TV series “Army Wives,” and in the films “The Lucky Ones” and “Superhero Movie.” THE RESCUES music can already be heard on the following stations including influential Los Angeles taste-making station KCRW 89.9 Los Angeles, KTAO (New Mexico), KSLU (St. Louis, MO) KRVS (Louisiana) WRUV (Vermont), WSFX/WRRW (North Carolina), WHFC (Maryland), WUTC (Chattanooga, TN), KDNK/ KVNF (Colorado), WAER (New York), WCRX-A KAXE (Minnesota) KSMF (Sacramento, CA) KNBA (Alaska), KCLC (St. Charles, MO) and WJCU (Cleveland, OH).
