The tight-knit childhood friends, composed of lead vocalist Matt Warren, keyboardist Nicky Neighbors along with Cameron Pearson on bass, Matthew Fosmire on drums (professionally known as “Foz”) and guitarist David Silveria, formed Your Favorite Color with a shared passion for music as an outlet for self-expression. Over six years, the group honed their craft, writing songs and delivering electrifying performances along the California coast.
