About Me

Wess Meets West began in late 2005 and was created by Sam Stauff (The Morning After, My Holy Ghost). Initially, it was intended as solely an electronic music project supplemented by Sam on guitar. The project stayed this way until February 2008 when Sam recruited bass player Bryan Gottshall and drummer Jesse Vengrove, turning Wess Meets West into a live band. The band now fuses it's electronic roots with it's newly found live elements, bringing the music to a whole new level and finally allowing the music to be performed in a live setting.
Wess Meets West's first EP (You Women…) is a small collection of songs and experiments, mostly consisting of guitar driven atmospheric jams with electronic undertones. This EP was produced when it was still Sam's solo project. However, since the addition of Jesse and Bryan, Wess Meets West has written new material that showcases their new sound and is in the process of recording and releasing their yet untitled second EP. This EP is currently being recorded by Port City Recording (operated by Sam and Bryan) at Mercy College in White Plains, New York.
