Video The Western Den, "Stay The Sun" - Live at Berklee

Deni Hlavinka and Chris West's collaborative work The Western Den performs with Alec Alabado, trumpet, voice; Jon Hubbell, electric guitar; Tim Reynolds, violin; Ro Rowan, cello; and Hayden Cotcher, drums, percussion.

Formed in February 2013 and driven by a shared passion to create music with purpose, The Western Den is the collaborative work of Deni Hlavinka and Chris West, who together blend compelling folk harmonies with ambient textures to produce a sound all their own. The duo released their debut EP, Battle Hymns, in May 2013 and premiered that summer by opening for Melissa Ferrick on the northeastern leg of her national tour. The Western Den is based in Boston, performing and working on a full-length album.
