Growing up in small-town upstate New York, X Ambassadors frontman Sam Harris, his brother Casey, and childhood friend Noah Feldshuh bonded over their obsessive love for punk, rock & roll, soul, and hip-hop. Forming their first band in middle school, the three channeled their infatuation with artists as eclectic as The Stooges and The Staple Singers into a string of musical projects that sharply clashed with their local scene’s favoring of folk and country. After graduating high school and decamping to New York City, the Harris brothers and Noah joined up with L.A.-raised drummer Adam Levin—a move that helped X Ambassadors solidify their sound into a groove-fueled take on alt-pop. In 2013 X Ambassadors signed with KIDinaKORNER/Interscope Records and released their Love Songs Drug Songs EP which featured the single “Unconsolable.”
