The Wading Girl (podcast up soon)


"Hi, we're The Wading Girl, and we're an American band based in the Roanoke Valley in Southwestern Virginia. We play rock n' roll music that finds it's influence in many places, from punk to Americana, and we try to use these things that we love to make our own sound. We sing about our friends, our families, religion, politics, whiskey, books, traveling, geography, and love (both lost and found). Sometimes we sing about all of the above at the same time. We ride around in our bright red van and play shows. We've undergone a lot of changes in our three years of existence; we've played in a lot of different places, met a lot of people and made a lot of friends (and maybe some enemies?). We've self-released two full length albums. We're currently working on another one. We try our damnedest to be honest and real in what we do. We don't like writing bios. Chances are we'll be on tour soon. Maybe we'll see you. "These kids can give you loud, rockin' guitars with great hooks or they can dial it back a notch and give you soft melodies and heartfelt lyrics." – My Old Kentucky Blog "The genius of the Wading Girl is that the band makes it look so easy, as if writing sparkling, perfect pop was as pedestrian as purchasing stamps." – The Roanoke Times "

Fixing to head off on a tour down the east coast and back, the trio (plus friends who fill in for certain instrument parts) Sarah, Billy and Josh make up the Raonoke, VA based band, The Wading Girl. Sarah and Billy called into the show this morning and gave us some details about the band ranging from how they met, down to the custom album art they created for their CD's.

Listen to the podcast come tomorrow morning! The link will be posted!
