Wim Tapley & The Cannons WSG Five Door Sedan & Tim Thompson

**Wim Tapley & the Cannons**

Based in Athens, Georgia, Wim Tapley came of age playing venues in Washington D.C. and its sprawling suburbs. There, he honed his voice with the passion of a born troubadour, drawing in a diverse fanbase with his easy showmanship and distinct style.

Since 2021, Athens has been home to Wim and his live band The Cannons. His first week in the Empire State of the South, Wim made his way onto a local bill, etching a name for himself as a fresh and favorite hometown voice. He is ardently received by his ever-growing following at legendary regional venues like the Georgia Theatre, Eddie’s Attic, and the 40 Watt Club— the latter of which he’s headlined more than once— and on tours across the Southeast, playing ticketed shows in capital cities and SEC university campuses.

Firmly rooted in Americana and dashed with glamorous pop sensibilities, the swinging depths of neo-soul, and a sprinkling of riotous horns, Wim’s arresting sound is as fresh as it is ageless, as fevered as it is raucous fun. Ever-inspired by the alchemy that happens on stage, in the studio Wim’s instruments stay live and edges remain raw. A sonic westward expansion of fuzzed-out guitars, saloon pianos, defiant horns, and dusty vocals, his discography blazes a fresh new take on folk-pop while honoring the songwriting giants that paved the way before him like Jason Isbell, Bill Withers, and Chris Stapleton.

**Five Door Sedan**

Five Door Sedan is a brand new indie rock group from Charleston, SC.

Their new sound blends the improvisation and raw emotion of psychedelic rock with a modern feel of carefully orchestrated, catchy indie rock music. Tight rhythms, deep lyrics, and passionate playing make this band a powerhouse of musicality.

The 5 piece band, (formerly Dacota Muckey and The Trip) brings a unique twist with sultry saxophone and layers of melodic synths.

The band has been hard at work in the studio recording a new EP. Their latest singles “Darlin’ You,” “My Flaw” and “Not Sorry” launched fans into their new era of music.
