Wednesday is a band from North Carolina led by Karly Hartzman, with guitarist MJ Lenderman, bassist Ethan Baechtold, drummer Alan Miller, and pedal steel player Xandy Chelmis. Half-funny, half-tragic dispatches from the American South unfurling somewhere between the wailing skuzz of Nineties shoegaze and classic country twang, Wednesday’s music defies categorization. Hartzman calls it “creek rock” – there are sleepy country-imbued love songs, moments of screaming hardcore propulsion, distorted pedal steel and Hartzman’s sweet voice slicing through the din.
