North Carolina’s Wednesday, led by generational songwriter Karly Hartzman, bring their ragged, storytelling driven Asheville sound to ARRIVAL.
Blending Southern rock twang, shoegaze noise and gut-punch lyricism, Wednesday have quickly become one of the most vital guitar bands of the 2020’s. Their breakthrough album Rat Saw God was widely hailed as one of the decade’s defining indie rock records, while new album Bleeds (2025) pushes their self-described “Creek Rock” sound even louder, sharper and more emotionally unfiltered.
At the centre is Hartzman’s vivid, hyper-specific songwriting shaped by small-town memories, dark humour and heartbreak delivered with disarming honesty. Around her, MJ Lenderman, Xandy Chelmis, Alan Miller and Ethan Baechtold stretch those stories across pedal steel twang, slacker hooks and towering walls of fuzz.
We are thrilled to bring their at times explosive and tender live show to the Naval Store for ARRIVAL. Joined by indie pop favourites Smol Fish + emerging prog-folk three piece Symmetrical Dogs.
