The Westar had their breakthrough with the single "Lucky" in 2004. The song's melody and lyrics connected with listeners, and it became their most recognizable track. Their self-titled debut album followed in 2005, and they later released other albums including "Rise Above" and "Horizon."
The band's core lineup included Chris Cameron on lead vocals, Alex Martinez on guitar, Matt Smith on bass, and Ben Jones on drums. They worked with other artists like Taylor Swift, The Killers, and Bono at various points. Songs like "Running With My Hands" and "Turn On The Dark" also appeared in their catalog.
