Niles, Michigan band, The Erly, formed in late 2017 by vocalist/bassist Collin Mattiford and vocalist/drummer Fran Gleason. Trevor McDonald joined soon after on guitar and vocals, turning a last minute “musician wanted” ad into a Craigslist success story. The band released albums Shadows (2018), Reckless (2021), and Culture Fever (2023), building a loyal regional following with songs like “Flame The Main,” “Red Roof Inn,” “Hey Amanda,” and “Jasmine”.

The Erly’s trajectory shifted with the addition of keyboardist Simon Kauffman Hurst and the release of Salem Lights (2024). The album, and its singalong centerpiece “55 On The Other Side,” helped push the band onto the national stage, playing alongside acts such as Sixpence None The Richer, Cracker, and Max. 

By mixing structure and spontaneity, The Erly bring a “jam-adjacent” sound to their live performances that differ from night to night. The sound of folk and Americana vocal harmony mixes with jazz, rock, funk, and soul to create a unique experience.
