Hello darkness, smile my friend
Your time has just begun
(?...) and (?...) places
Purple for everyone
(Aaah, aaah)

Rusty rainbows and velvet flowers
Growing in fields of sun
Children playing and people saying
The trees are on the run
(Aaah, aaah
Aaah, aaah-ha-a-a

Rusty rainbows and velvet flowers
Growing in (?...)
Children playing and people saying
The trees are on the run

Biography

edit bio

Wednesday is an indie rock band based in Asheville, North Carolina that began releasing music in 2018. Originally a musical collaboration between University of North Carolina students Karly Hartzman and Daniel Gorham, the group expanded into its current iteration as a five-piece outfit composed of frontwoman Karly Hartzman (vocals/rhythm guitar/primary songwriter), Jake “MJ” Lenderman (lead guitar), Xandy Chelmis (lap steel guitar), Margo Schultz (bass), and Alan Miller (drums).

The band’s name Wednesday comes from Karly Hartzman and original member Daniel Gorham’s mutual appreciation of English jangle pop band The Sundays, especially their 1990 album Reading, Writing and Arithmetic. Yet The Sundays' soft guitar music is a far cry from Wednesday’s current musical output, which is mainly an amalgamation of ‘90s-inspired noisy slacker rock with elements of country and shoegaze … also known as “country-gaze.”
