“At first it was hard to convince somebody to come on a tour where there s no financial guarantee,” Simon says. “But Azad was totally down for it, and him being down for that helped build the band, because we would definitely go out there a lot and make some noise.
After that tour, Azad, who grew up in Manhattan, Kansas, and was living in Kansas City at the time, became a long-distance member, making the eight-and-a-half-hour drive to Denver for Brothers of Brass gigs. The group would travel the country, busking outside Phish and Dead & Company concerts.
Azad finally moved to Denver in November 2018 and shared a house with Simon for the next two years. Simon says Azad was a musical genius who could write everything from big-band and brass-band charts to film scores and simple jam-band songs.

Latest Release: ELLSWORTH, Rosethorn Records, Jan. 29, 2021
About: It was just another day in the small town of Camp Sherman, Oregon when 8-year-old Megan Rose Ellsworth picked up her dad’s guitar. She stretched her pudgy, kid fingers across the neck, and gleefully plucked the strings. Her father noticed her love of music and taught her a few chords, unknowingly spurring within Megan a yearning that would fuel the trajectory of her life. She soon surpassed her father’s ability to teach and began writing and performing whenever she got the chance. Now a graduate from two of the University of Colorado Denver’s award-winning programs, Music Business and Songwriting, she is living her passion as a touring folk singer-songwriter under her last name, ELLSWORTH.
