Waydown Wailers bring blend of roots rock and Americana to Edwards Opera House June 9

EDWARDS – Homegrown roots rock, Americana-tinged electric jam music with a healthy dose of original music will be on tap at the Edwards Opera House when Canton’s own Waydown Wailers take the stage to perform on Saturday, June 9 at 7 p.m.

The Woodstock Recording artists perform original roots, rock, blues, folk and country music, and have several albums to their credit.

They have opened for the legendary jam-rock legends New Riders of the Purple Sage, which started as a Grateful Dead side project in the 1969, and country music stars Lady Antebellum.

The band features brothers Dave (guitar/lead vocals) and Christian Parker (lead guitar), Michael Scriminger (drums/percussion) and Connor Pelkey (bass backing vocals).

“The Waydown Wailers is a band of dreamers that in vision a sound that they personally want to inhabit, something that gets their hearts pumping before releasing it on a cover-beaten, musically famished public,” said the band’s website, waydownwailers.com.

Tickets to the show are $10, and can be purchased at the door the night of the show. All proceeds benefit the opera house and the continuation of the series there.
