Xs & ARROWs is a trio of native Los Angelenos bound by teenage friendship, a love of Irish rock, and commitment to artistic creation.
The group began as rock n' roll quartet EXIT, playing high-profile clubs such as The Whisky and The Viper Room. In their incarnations with various singers, they have had some truly noteworthy experiences: playing the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, touring the Balkans, even joining U2 on stage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles for a performance of the legendary band's "Out of Control."
Today Xs & ARROWs have found their identity fronted by guitarist Courtney Lavender, favouring an acoustic vibe with warm, vulnerable vocals. Their debut EP, From Here, was released in 2017, featuring a collaboration with Glen Hansard.
The band performed at the NAMM show in early 2020, and over the course of the following year, released several home videos that led to the creation of a new EP, Awoken by Owls (Home Sessions), out September 17, 2021.
"Go Deeper," from Awoken by Owls, is a song that embraces the bravery of vulnerability, and acknowledges the meaningful connections that can arise from authenticity.
