Weedhaven Laughing Academy at Old Hilliardfest 2016

Weedhaven Laughing Academy (WLA) singer and bassist, Wolfgang Parker, states the band’s first goal is to serve a dual purpose: to warn young romantics of the danger ahead as they set out to make a name for themselves while inspiring the wary veterans to continue following their dream. “Our aspirations drive us to create beauty, to inspire, but also drives us to madness — and that’s often in the course of one concert,” Parker says.

Parker is being joined by guitarists Anthony Yates and Alan Mauger, who both served with him during his Punk-Swing days. The new kid being drummer Matt Mees, who has 40+ years playing with acts like Razorbliss, The Godz, George Jones and Bo Diddley.
