The 44th Whitterview with Wesley Stromberg

It's 2012 and I'm sitting on my couch watching The X Factor auditions when the next group up was brought on stage. That's when I was introduced to Emblem3, a group consisting of Wesley Stromberg, Keaton Stromberg, and Drew Chadwick. They performed the groups original song "Sunset Blvd" which to this day I still listen to at least once a day.

Just a few weeks ago my younger sister and I were in the car together and she asked me if I had heard this song and as the song came on, what do you know its Sunset Blvd.

That season on The X Factor Emblem3 made their way to fourth place.
