The Dales

The Dales is a five-piece Americana roots-rock band, carried by three-part harmonies and a deep appreciation for classic songwriting and early country music. 

The band formed in early 2016 when multiplatinum songwriter Drew Lawrence (Christina Perri—"Jar of Hearts") teamed up with four of his closest friends to begin performing songs that would become its debut album, Marie. A video of its song "Still the Love" caught the ears of Grammy-nominated producer Jerry Streeter (the Lumineers, Brandi Carlile). The song was written as a dedication to bass player Kyle Vanes's girlfriend, Heather Marie Allman, who passed away from breast cancer the year before. This led to Streeter producing Marie, released in August 2017.

The Dales have been on road since, supporting acts such as the White Buffalo and Cris Jacobs. They also have headlined sold-out shows in Los Angeles, as well as other cities on the West Coast and in the Midwest. The band has been featured on NPR's World Cafe and Acoustic Cafe, as well as in television interviews on NBC and ABC.
