ViCTORiOUS
AS ROCKWiRED.COM's ARTiST OF THE MONTH!!!  SEPTEMBER
4, 2012 - The polls have closed for
ROCKWIRED.COM's
recent ARTIST OF
THE MONTH campaign. Voters from all over the U.S. made their vote count
and WAYLAND is ROCKWIRED.COM's newest ARTIST OF THE
MONTH for their forthcoming release WELCOME TO MY HEAD. WAYLAND
is a four-piece rock and roll band from Michigan who, thinking it was
the right thing to do, pooled their money and made the leap to pack
up the van and move to Los Angeles. While living in LA, the band was
hammering away playing any gig they could book until they were
introduced to JUDE COLE who quickly identified that this is a band
that belonged in the Midwest. JUDE challenged them to get back to
their roots in the heart of Middle America where people love their
rock and roll. After
some convincing, the band agreed and picked up again and moved
straight back to their namesake hometown, Wayland, Michigan where
everything started falling into place. The band made fast friends
with the nationally syndicated morning show FREE BEER AND HOT WINGS
by bringing them breakfast in exchange for airplay. One of the
morning DJ’s found Wayland an easy target for reaching out in this
way but after just one spin of “WELCOME TO MY HEAD,” listeners
fell in love with the song immediately and stood up for the guys. The
Program Director at WGRD, JT, agreed that it was a hit and added it
to the rotation. JT offers, “The talent this band possesses is
unreal and they have the #1 most requested song on our airwaves and
sold out shows all over Michigan to back it up!” Enjoying
giant local success, WAYLAND wasted no time in hitting the road in a
donated RV from a local camper supply house and they haven’t looked
back. After performing live on WJJO, WXRX, WBUZ, KQRC, and WFTK, the
band has been added to the airwaves across the country and has been
invited to participate in some of the most recognizable summer
festivals in 2012.Other nominees for ARTIST OF THE MONTH included ANTOiNETTE MiCHAEL THORNES, THE COMO BROTHERS,SHALLOW SiDE, LiZ MANDEViLLE, RAUSHi, and CRASH STREET KiDS.
