Winyah

Winyah play the Neighborhood Theatre on Thursday, December 10. They're a five-piece band from South Carolina, and the set pulls from a mix of indie, rock, and southern rock.

Frontman Thomas Rowland leads the group, and their sound is built around the crackle of the guitars and Rowland's growling voice. It's a blend of southern swagger and indie rock bite that puts them in a specific pocket—somewhere between the grit of the South and the lean lines of indie rock. They've already played Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza, sold out their first headline tour, and are currently working on a sophomore album.

As for how they see themselves, the band describes them as dreamers intent on becoming a face of the new rock-and-roll revival. That's a bold way to frame it, but it gives you a sense of where they're aiming: they're not just playing the clubs; they're looking at the bigger picture.

Doors open at 7 PM and the show starts at 8 PM. The night is for ages 18 and over with a valid ID, though under-18s can get in with a parent. The balcony is restricted to ages 21 and over.
