Cory Wells

Cory Wells is a singer-songwriter from Redondo Beach, California. The cover of Wells’ debut album, THE WAY WE ARE, features the Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter perched atop a rusted-out vintage car, calling to mind dusty folk music. Songs like the set-opening “Distant” and “Keiko,” imbued by seemingly effortless musicianship and wistful nostalgia, go a long way toward reinforcing this sonic predilection. But there’s more to Wells than what you’ll find on the surface.
