The Band
Abiel Chavez
Guitar, main vocals
With a background as a drum major and experience playing bass trombone, Abiel transformed his expertise in tempo and leadership into his role as an energetic frontman.
From his formative years spent immersed in the sounds of Latin guitar to his adolescence shaped by the influences of Metallica and Megadeth, his musical palette reflects a diverse range of inspirations that mirror his eclectic songwriting style.
As a self-taught singer, songwriter, and guitarist, Abiel's music emanates from the depths of his head, heart, and soul, imbuing each composition with a genuine and heartfelt authenticity.
Cody Bridgewater
Bass, Backing Vocals
Having grown up alongside Abiel, Cody's passion for music led him to double down on playing the trombone. Throughout their symphonic and marching band days, he and Abiel engaged in (not-so) friendly competition for first chair, an advantageous rivalry that extended even to their time together in a Metallica cover band.
Although Cody eventually set aside the trombone, his dedication to to the low end persisted, transitioning to playing four strings. Drawing from a diverse range of influences spanning metal, classic rock, blues, and hardcore, his extensive live performance experience with various bands, combined with a raw talent for his instrument, made it a natural choice when he and Abiel reunited to form TownHouseFire.
Travis Mansell
Drums, Backing Vocals
Travis Mansell, the heartbeat behind the rhythm of THF, is a seasoned percussionist with roots deeply entrenched in the vibrant music scene of Northwest Arkansas.
As the born-again original drummer of the group, his rhythmic prowess and commitment to originality have been monumental to the group. With decades-long friendships with all of the guys, their cosmic chemistry fuels the group's sound.
Influences include but are NOT limited to: Bill Muri, Avenged Sevenfold, classical and more, which brings forth a drumming style that blends these influences, shaping the band's dynamic!
Logan Vowell
Lead Guitar
Hailing from the heartland of the Midwest, Logan channels his soulful, self-taught shredding skills by drawing inspiration from iconic figures such as Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix, along with contemporary virtuosos like John 5 and Paul Gilbert.
His versatile style seamlessly complements a diverse array of favorite bands, spanning from Buckethead to Pantera.
Despite being the newest member of the ensemble, Logan seamlessly integrated into the fold in the summer of 2021, never skipping a beat. His impeccably timed licks and precisely executed solos have ignited the band's repertoire, adding incendiary energy to their performances.
