Bios
Founded as the studio band for Eastlake Studios in Lake Elsinore, CA, this ensemble consists of a wide range of musicianship from rock to hip hop, folk to R&B, and everything in between.
Formed in 2022 by Tristan Bowls (Guitar), Gregory Boulet (Bass), and Christian Ruth (Drums), they would eventually be joined by Tanner Bowls (Keys) and Devon Ryle (Vocals) to make their debut in San Diego and Temecula in the summer of '22.
Soon joined by vocalists Chloe Lovato and Nyomi Nicole, and constantly enjoying a rotation of many talented musicians in the scene, the Eastlake has become a tastefully meaty musical force looking to liven up your nights with tunes that'll get you moving and feeling alive across space and time.
