Warped 45's


Of course, country rock won't go quietly. It will still be played and enjoyed in cities all across North America, just as it was in the years be­fore trucker caps were a fashion state­ment.

So while it may seem like a bad career move to release a new record inspired by the Gram Parsons-period Flying Burrito Brothers and the Band, the Warped 45s have gone and done it anyway. Not that singer/guitarist Ryan Wayne and his co-writer-cousin Dave McEathron are natural-born contrarians. They're simply playing what comes natural­ly, having grown up in a family filled with strum-happy folkies.

“My dad and my uncle lived side-by-side with five sisters in the Algonquin Park area, and from the time we were little kids, Dave and I would sit around listening to their jam sessions and all the records they'd play,” Ryan says. “If you're only ever hearing stuff by artists like John Prine and Townes Van Zandt, that becomes the standard. I just figured everyone wrote like that when I began writing songs as a kid.”

Sunday July 13

Bloodshot Bill, whose one-man rockabilly/rhythm and blues impressed.
His ability to cycle through various styles of singing within one song was far from being any kind of parlour trick, and his sustained intensity throughout felt genuine.

The man plays a genuine style of psychobilly of should I say “Psychotic Rockabilly” that is best compared with the sound of Hazel Adkins.

Ryan and Sam Weber have been playing music together since Sam received a guitar for Christmas when he was eight years old. Ryan, two and half years older than Sam, picked up the bass and soon the brothers were playing shows all over their native Westminster, Maryland. After finishing high school and traveling, the Brothers decided to send a demo tape to Ronnie Hawkins, whom they have idolized since they saw his performance in The Band's (Martin Scorsese's award-winning 1976 concert documentary of The Band's farewell performance) ‘‘The Last Waltz''. Hawkins was so impressed with the Weber Brothers' talents that he invited them to his house north of Peterborough to attend his 90 day ‘‘Rock and Roll Boot Camp''. After three months of living and rehearsing on Hawkins' farm, the brothers became members of Ronnie's world famous band ‘‘The Hawks''. Under the wing of the Hawk they learned the importance of rehearsing daily, leadership and group dynamics.sets.
