Waiting For Neil
Newton, Massachusetts, United States | Established. Jan 01, 2012
Bio
Waiting For Neil was formed in early 2012 by five New England-based musicians who share a passion for American roots music. Since then, WFN has been playing its joyful blend of American folk, roots, old-time and bluegrass music at a variety of music venues and festivals throughout New England. The band's compelling sound, at times joyful and at times mournful, combines dynamic rhythms, moving stories and soaring three and four part harmonies.
Waiting For Neil brings its downhome approach to both traditional and original songs, drawing on a variety of musical influences - from traditional English ballads to Appalachian fiddle tunes, to modern alternative folk-rock. The result is a joyful, high-energy, upbeat and foot-stompin sound. WFNs instrumentation includes banjo, mandolin, fiddle, guitar, bass and the occasional banjo ukulele.
Waiting For Neil showcased at the 2014 Joe Val Bluegrass Festival in Framingham, MA, and performed at the 2013 New England Americana Festival in Cambridge.
