Live from Capitol Hall : The Wobblers

For over 13 years The Wobblers have been a cornerstone of the Upstate South Carolina music scene, earning a dedicated cult following as one of the region’s most distinct and original-sounding acts. This powerhouse ensemble features a four-piece horn section, piano, organ, guitar, bass, and drums, delivering a high-energy performance that is as professional as it is soulful.

Their expansive repertoire is a dynamic mix of original compositions and eclectic, soul-infused covers. Rooted in the spirit of New Orleans, their sound blends brassy textures and "second line" rhythms—anchored by drummer Patrick Riley—with edgy jazz elements reminiscent of visionaries like Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Sun Ra, and Thelonious Monk. At any given moment, their music might pivot to evoke the legendary songwriting of The Kinks, The Band, Elvis Costello, or the indie-soul sensibilities of Dr. Dog and NRBQ.The band’s evolution is captured in their discography, including their 2019 full-length debut and the 2021 EP, ASTRO III—a collection of originals released on 7” vinyl. Whether performing locally or regionally, The Wobblers are known for "entrancing" crowds with their musical diversity and infectious energy.When you see The Wobblers live, you aren’t just attending a concert; you’re embarking on a genre-bending journey through the musical spectrum—and joining the best party in town.
