Check out our new single, "Endless Hours"!!
Orange County, CA-based band WHIT3 COLLR crafts a unique mix of retro influences with contemporary flair. Featured in Alternative Press (AltPress) Magazine’s “New Artists You Need to Hear” in May 2021, the band’s rock sound is a nod to greats like Van Halen and Guns N’ Roses, while their infectious hooks and melodies reveal modern influences such as KALEO, The Black Keys, and Greta Van Fleet. WHIT3 COLLR's thrashing drums and gritty electric guitars combine with raw rock vocals that "are reminiscent of Ozzy Osbourne circa 1982" (Pancakes and Whiskey).
Friends since seventh grade, 17-year-old Will Sawyer (lead vocals/guitar/bass) and 16-year-old Donovan Hess (drums/backing vocals) gig regularly throughout Southern California, playing some of its most iconic venues such as the Whisky A GoGo and the Coach House. With Sawyer singing lead and Hess’s strong backing vocals, they have mastered the art of tight harmonies, concocting a solid sound that seamlessly melds.
WHIT3 COLLR just wrapped up their debut album, and their first single "16 Sweet" dropped April 2021. With this new release, the band looks to make an impact on the music scene. Their producer, Jon Joseph, helped cement the band’s cutting edge sound that sets the tone for the album. Sawyer shares, “We are making music and playing live because we love it, and we just want to project that energy onto our fans. We are in it to create and put something out that we are truly proud of and love.” WHIT3 COLLR's second single, "Endless Hours," will be released June 2021.
