Wayward Sway songs range from dark, off-kilter campfire sing alongs,
to ballads of unrequited love and stomping tunes inspiring nightlife
debauchery. Their music entwines folk, country, rock and traditional
influences.
The delicate balance of instrumentation includes acoustic guitars,
banjo, mandolin, violin, dobro, bass and an occasional electric
guitar. These are all held together with the clunking, pounding
and crashing of bottles, pots, pans, washboards, gongs, cymbals
and drums, which are collectively known as their junk percussion.
As Wayward Sway continues to play and sing, they can be found residing
in the San Francisco Bay Area. The lines and the songs of the past
have come together in the music of Wayward Sway, and their sound
is nothing but their own. Acoustic strings, junk percussion, and
a chorus of vocals fill the air, while stories of the dispossessed
are spun for your dancing pleasure.
They stomp their feet and sing with their hearts. Sometimes they
are out of tune. Sometimes they are out of touch. Still they persist.
Let them.
