The Way Station Music Festival Day 3: Will Newman Trio + A Fire With Friends + The Waysties + Wizard Sex + Callow + Up Nights

7pm- Will Newman Trio
Genre: Comedy / Rock
Flight of the Conchords / Stephen Lynch

The Will Newman Trio is a satirical romantic singer/songwriter group. They earnestly perform love songs like "Even Though You're Not Attractive I'll Still Make Out With You" and "I'll Get You So Pregnant". They're kind of like the Mountain Goats mixed with Tenacious D or Flight of the Conchords. They come from Brooklyn, but have played shows from Boston to DC.

11pm- Callow (San Francisco Bay area)
Genre: Indie Art Rock
For fans of: Dr. Dog, Fleet Foxes, and Black Heart Procession

The sound of Callow’s haunting Art Rock, fronted by lead vocalist/guitarist Red Moses, and drummer/Keyboardist Sami Knowles is wise beyond its years, despite the fact their name means naïve, inexperienced and immature.

Formed in 2009, Callow is the project of a dancer Knowles, and a musician since high school, Moses.  Hailing from the San Francisco Bay area, the band has played all over the Western half of the country and parts of Canada.  Callow loves to make music that hits people in the gut.

“Providing a refined contrast to Red’s vocals are the soothing, angelic backing vocals of Sami whose voice weaves in and out of harmonies and duets that provide a sweeping flow to their sound“- Pat Herrera

"From the sparse and atmospheric opening minutes of the album, Callow clearly focus on texture and dynamics in their song-writing, featuring subtle harmonies featuring male and female vocals which work well to provide emotional depths to the proceedings."--- IndieBands Blog- Post by Robbie

12am- Up Nights (Wilmington, Delaware)
Genre: Emo, Indie
For fans of: Sunny Day Real Estate, Karate,

Up Nights is an Indie Emo Rock  duo based in Wilmington, Delaware. Blending the sharp melodic guitar style of Andrew Townsend with David Sanchez's hard hitting drums and somber words, the two share songful tales of human nature and offer friendly reminders of things most of us choose to forget.  The two met over 4 years ago when Sanchez became Townsend's client, but had never spoke of music until early this year. Both men have been making music since the 90's and are fathers to a pair of children each. With the recent release of their debut Self titled Ep, Up Nights is gradually making their way around the east coast with plans to cap off their Full Length and head out west next year.
