Western Fusion was formed in the late 90’s by band leader Brian Childress. Brian’s goals were to have a band that sounded like radio and be composed of some of the best musicians Arizona has to offer.. In the beginning Western Fusion was a traditional country band. As the band evolved with musicians, so did the music. Today the standard five piece band still plays country including George Strait, Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, Keith Urban, Old Dominion, Cody Johnson and can evolve with hits from the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and today’s pop/rock including a mix from Bruno Mars, Motley Crue, Sublime, 311, Bryan Adams, Billy Idol, Tears for Fears, and the list goes on!
Western Fusion has been on the local scene for over 25 years and has enjoyed playing various venues throughout the state. The band has opened for National Acts such as: Blake Shelton, Easton Corbin, Mark Wills and has backed and opened for 90’s country icon Wade Hayes. They were also the opening act for Country legend Charlie Daniels at Cliff Castle Casino. Western Fusion has played the Tempe Block Party, events for the Town of Gilbert, Town of Camp Verde, Town of Chino Valley, City of Surprise, Phoenix International Raceway, Coconino County Fair, Harrah’s Ak-Chin Casino, Gila River Casinos, Apache Gold Casino, Fort McDowell Casino and most recently in Las Vegas at The Tropicana for Wrangler’s National Finals Rodeo Watch Party. Brian Childress and the band released their first single “When The Ride is Over” this past November exclusively on the OoYeah app. Look for the next single to be released in spring of 2024. The band has built up quite a fan base in recent years selling their “Western Fusion” T-Shirts, Tank Tops and their original music at local shows.
