Emblem3

Emblem3 is an American pop rock/reggae band from Sequim, Washington, consisting of brothers Wesley Stromberg and Keaton Stromberg. In 2013, they signed with Simon Cowell's record label Syco Records and Columbia Records after finishing fourth on the second season of The X Factor USA. The original line-up of the group consisted of brothers Wesley Stromberg and Keaton Stromberg and former member Drew Chadwick.

Career
While attending middle school in Sequim, Washington, Drew Chadwick and Wesley Stromberg began doing sessions together. At the time, Keaton Stromberg, Wesley's brother was only nine and was not a part of the band, but was working on his own home recordings and would watch Chadwick and Wesley work. While Wesley had moved to Huntington Beach with his girlfriend, Chadwick spent high school moving up and down the West Coast, eventually joining Wesley in Huntington Beach, California. Keaton enrolled in a nearby art school and moved to California to join them. They released an album, Bite Your Lip and Take It under the name The American Scholars, which they produced in their basement. After going through many names, the trio settled on "Emblem3" while in Huntington Beach. They performed locally along the Sunset Strip.
