JSYK interview.
He Is We have just released their debut album, ‘My Forever,’ but while their loyal fanbase is enjoying their catchy new songs, singer Rachel Taylor wants to set the record straight. She and her bandmate Trevor Kelly are not dating, and he does not sing on the record. Period.
The Tacoma, Wash. natives met while working in a music shop in August 2008, and built a huge following by posting songs and demos on sites like Purevolume, on which they have amassed over 2.6 million plays. The melodic duo soon signed to Universal, and released their new album on November 22. It quickly hit No. 4 on the iTunes Pop Album chart as well as No. 6 on Billboard’s Heatseeker chart.
But Rachel and Trevor’s relationship is strictly a super tight friendship. Sorry uber fans, but Rachel actually just got engaged and Trevor has a girlfriend. Check out our exclusive interview in which the charismatic singer dispels rumors, talks about He Is We’s single, ‘And Run,’ what it was like collaborating with The Almost’s Aaron Gillespie and what her advice is for aspiring musicians who want to stake their claim in the music world.
JSYK: Hi, Rachel! First of all, we want to say congrats on the success of ‘My Forever.’
Rachel: Thanks!
JSYK: We read that you and Trevor met at a record store back in the day. Was there any initial attraction between you two?
Rachel: No, not even remotely. He’s really small, no offense. He’s not a bad looking person, don’t get me wrong, but I felt more of a connection when it came to our humor. I had just moved to Tacoma and I didn’t have any friends, so the last thing I was looking for was a soulmate. To me, when I saw him, I was like, ‘Oh my gosh! A friend!’”
JSYK: I’m sure people think you’re dating.
Rachel: Lots of people do, and I have a promise ring and everyone thinks I’m engaged to Trevor. They’re always kind of intimidated to come and tell us how great we are, or whatever, because they feel like we’re dating and they don’t want to make the other person mad. I just really want to clear the air and let everyone know that he’s got a girlfriend and it isn’t me. Continue reading

Rewrite the Scene review ‘My Forver’.
Out of Tacoma, Washington, emerges a beautifully balanced chemistry of lyrically impassioned vocal melodies paired with simple, heartfelt, and tasteful songs. The major-label debut by HE IS WE, entitled “My Forever”, is a blend of cozy, sunny day songs, with noticeable amounts of smiles and love. The majority of the songs have the uncanny ability to entice a smile out of the worst of days.
