Grinners!

On Saturday, December 20th at Kendrews, WG welcomes fiddle wiz Frank Cackowski to sit in with the band, and bring his virtuosity to the fold. This will be an exciting addition to the bands sound and feel. We have rehearsed new tunes and old, that emphasize fiddle and Frank's amazing playing, and we are soooo very excited.
Yup, including the one you are thinking!!!

Those that have heard Frank play will understand....he's a great player

After many months, we are glad to have this key instrument back into our music, and Frank can certainly deliver. You may know Frank from his past work with other acts, including the Fabulous Gunslingers and other local country and bluegrass acts.
Recenlty, he and his lovely wife welcomed their second child, so his time is certainly scarce, but we have extended our invitation to him whenever he can play, and hopefully for all of us, that is more times than not!

Please come meet him and welcome him to the kind of show only the WG gang can deliver.
We anticipate a real barn burner, and know that you will all feel the vibe that WG tries to deliver, now with that down home feel we have all missed, all rolled up into one big party!

See you Saturday!!

WG is a grateful fortunate to have the fanbase and all the people close to the band that help and contribute to our efforts to bring national recognition to western PA. Some great bands have come out of here, (Clarks, PNH, Donny Iris, Gathering Field, etc) and the all had the firm and unshakable base of Western PA fans. They couldn't have done it without you and neither can we. Thank you for everything!  

So now that we have tons of CDs in the hands of the fans, CALL THE RADIO STATIONS! Our mission isn't over yet!! We wanna bring more national recognition to the areas best original bands to the 'burgh and surrounding areas. Spread the word! There is mega-talent around these parts!! Please help us support it!

Thank you, all of you, from the entire band. You all helped us far exceed our expectations, and the CD sales at the show were a very exciting and humbling thing to experience. We were blown away by the enthusiasm and acceptance of our material and the CD is a testament to who we are doing all of this for.

Cheers!
