Artist History VeryWest is a re-combination of two former Austin bands. The history between the members spans years. Both Aviation and Avatar Digs released projects that gained airplay along the way and now CDs at MP3. Every combination of band members produced a different sound and VeryWest is a digital combination of music heavy and vocal strong. The beat is driving and the harmonies are textured with emotional colors.
