Currently winding down
their US Tour, the band
Wayland
(from
Grand
Rapids, Michigan), will
finish playing over 300
dates this year, to over half
a million people. On their
final North Carolina tour
stop this year, they rolled
into Charlotte on Oct 9,
2015, performing in front
of an intimate crowd of 250
people at The Rabbit Hole,
in the "artsy community" of
Plaza
Midwood.
For
anyone, who has never
seen these guys live, they
give an amazing 110%
while onstage, and this
show was no exception!
They came out with guitars
blazing with Mitch Arnold's
ION Journalist Gary Carota with Wayland and LaureNicole Band
unbelievable vocals, and
did a full 90 minute set of all their hits--even throwing in some brand new stuff from their
forthcoming album, including the newest radio hit "Bloody Sunrise".
