As the son of the Grammy Award-nominated producer, Wesley Trent Stromberg was born on December 6, 1993 in Sequim, Washington. At age six, he was introduced to the guitar and by the time he was eleven, he was writing his own songs. At age twelve, he and his friend Drew Chadwick would record their own music in Wesley's basement. His brother Keaton, who was nine at the time would watch them record and he later joined them when they auditioned on the X Factor USA as a band. After going by many names, they settled on Emblem3, which was the name they went by for their audition. For their first audition, they sang an original song of theirs called "Sunset Boulevard." Wesley and his band eventually came in fourth place on the X Factor and were signed to Simon Cowell's SYCO Records. In 2013, they released their first single "Chloe (You're The One I Want)" selling over 300,000 copies and in July of that same year, Emblem3 released their debut album "Nothing To Lose" which sold barely over 70,000 copies. In May 2014, Emblem3's label, SYCO Records, dropped them and a month later, member Drew Chadwick left for a solo career. Since then, Wesley and Keaton have released their self-titled album "Forever Together" and toured shortly after. The band went silent on social media for a few months until July, 2015 when they announced that they'd be going on hiatus. Emblem3 isn't officially over, but since then, Wesley has collaborated with friend Kenny Holland and the two released a single, "Fire." Show less «
