[Video] Naugatuck Band 'A Will Away' to Play at Vans Warped Tour

The band earned its way into Sunday's performance by finishing in the top four among 120 acts in a battle of the bands.

A Naugatuck-based band called "A Will Away," which earned its way into today’s Vans Warped Tour concert at the Comcast Theatre in Hartford, held a jam session Saturday night for some of their biggest local fans.

Naugatuck Patch caught up with the band during the makeshift performance. (See the attached video.)

The band, which plays what its members describe as modern rock, consists of Naugatuck resident Aaron Johnson on bass guitar, Ryan Cool and Collin Waldron on guitar, Matt Carlson on vocals and Sean Dibble on drums.
