The Long Winters March 28, 2007

Songwriter/guitarist John Roderick is the frontman for this band. The Broken West formed in Los Angeles in the summer of 2004, a group of friends from all across the country, coming together based on their mutual love of music. Originally known as The Brokedown, the band changed their name in the fall of 2006. So far in their young rock and roll life The Broken West have already released a critically acclaimed EP, 'The Dutchman's Gold.' Their debut full length, 'I Can't Go On, I'll Go On,' was released in early 2007.
