Here's a little low-down...
Izabella seeks to capture the hearts and imagination of music lovers everywhere. These musical brothers are on a mission to discover and re-discover significant spaces; those moments when time is lost and everything feels connected. It's an exploration of tone, feel, words, color and all things that inspire people to move.
The story of Izabella began back in the early 90's when Sean Lehe shattered his elbow on the basketball court. Forced to bury any hopes of a professional athletic career, Sean picked up a guitar to pass the time. Meanwhile, Brian Rogers carefully crafted love notes to his 8th grade girlfriends, winning them over with his wit and charm. Murph traveled around the country thumping amphitheaters with Chicago based Freddy Jones Band while Sam Phelps was busy rocking out with his Jr. High band, Sin Cycle. Lucas Carlton, 13 at the time, went to a Grateful Dead show, subsequently sporting a tie-dye shirt around his monochrome Central Coast town. Fast-forward more than a decade to 2006, shake up the 8-ball fortune globe a few times, and you'll find these 5 characters sitting around a patio table in Sacramento discussing a plan to take the musical world by storm.
At the start of 2008, the Izabella boys took their soulful dance party on the road fulltime and nationwide. With two studio albums, key performances at events like the High Sierra Music Festival, and over 120 gigs under their belts, the members of Izabella have received various accolades. Most recently, the band was named New Groove of the Month on Jambands.com, a national online magazine. The first studio release, "Dream When You Sleep", was picked up for distribution in Japan by Grey Dog's Records. This band is in it for the long haul, enjoying every step of the journey to the fullest!
