Since the Winter of 2015, The Change has been engaging audiences at concert venues, coffee houses and music festivals all over Michigan and the Midwest. The Grand Rapids-based quintet's original music is a rootsy blend of Blues, Rock, Americana and Soul. Lyrically, the band strives to promote social issues that are near and dear to them. Their distinctive sound is showcased on their 2016 debut, “Fight or Flight.” The album was warmly received by fans and critics and has been nominated for several WYCE Jammie awards. The Change is made up of Ryan Williams on lead vocals and rhythm, Sam Rice on percussion, Zach Potter on bass, Nate Karnes on keys, and Joe Chamberlin on lead guitar and co-vocals.
