Local Indie Group Rocks The Observatory Throughout June

The Steelwells Band

The Steelwells take June’s residency spot at The Observatory

Indie rock group the Steelwells will be performing multiple free shows at The Observatory this month.

It’s going to be a busy month for the Steelwells as they will be playing three more shows in the Constellation Room located inside the Observatory (June 11, 18 and 24), as well as four shows in San Diego and Los Angeles.

Based out of Fullerton, the Steelwells are excited to come home and perform their music in their home county.

“Orange County is home for us so there is a certain amount of anxiety involved. We know people have come to see us since we first started and will have a pre-conceived idea of who we are despite our own evolution musically,” lead singer and guitarist Joey Winter says. “We just hope everyone digs the new music we made as much as we do.”

Their latest EP, “Cool Kids” features a more keys/rhythm heavy style. Between records they acquired their new drummer Jonathan Bradley, who brought a whole new dynamic to the group.

The Steelwells have a busy summer ahead of them as they tour and focus on putting out a new EP.

“Right now we are really just focused on getting our new music out. We recorded enough songs for an EP with producer Jacquire King (King of Leon, Tom Waits, Modest Mouse, etc.),” Winter says.

Fans can expect to hear some of their new songs this month at their live shows.

“It’s all pretty magical,” Winter says. “Honestly playing live has always been an important part of this band. The feedback we get from the crowd while we play is like having conversation about the song. We put everything we have into it.”

The Steelwells shows in the Constellation Room at the Observatory are free for all ages.
