West and Merk - Wishes and Hopes

We have added the song Wishes and Hopes by West and Merk to our Spotify playlist Best Indie Country 2020.

West and Merk is like wearing your coolest sunglasses, feeling the wind blow through your hair, one hand on the wheel and the other hanging over the door of your Ford Mustang convertible on route 66. Country pop with a silver lining of folk. “I can’t wait to get on the road again.”

it’s November 2017, Steven is still playing covers on the streets on his own when Nick stumbles by and steps in. Traveling by  chance and music, the open convertible fills with a second vocal, a bass player and a drummer. They leave the cover songs behind and based on their experiences they start working on their own songs. “Like a band of Gypsies we go down the highway.”

West and Merk is found on streets, festivals and on stage. In addition to the live performances, their first single Wishes and Hopes was recently released and Steven (guitar and vocals), Nick (lead guitar), Elise (second vocals), Francesco (percussion), Davide (bass & double bass ) are working on their EP In the studio. “The life I love is making music with my friends.”
