WNS was asked to provide two songs for the documentary "Divided We Stand"... an instrumental version of "The Worried Man Blues, and the WNS original, "I Love Jesus (But I Don't Love You)". If you check out the trailer, you will hear the instrumental which is sync'ed with the trailer. Thanks to Tom Drew who gave WNS the chance to be part of this insightful look into the divided political landscape that exists throughout the swing states.

Sounds Like
Alternative bluegrass and folk music. A diverse blend of traditional and original music.
With a three hour repertoire to draw from, a WNS show is never repetitive. They combine a host of both obscure and recognizable covers with an unique list of original music. The four vocal styles, provided by Pierre, Randy, Andre, and Mike, compliment each other, adding further to the bands diversity. The combined harmonies of all three are laid over the solid rhythm of Randy's bass fiddle, Pierre's guitar or banjo, and Andre's mandolin. Added to this is Pierre's haunting and melodic harmonica, the phrasing and execution of Mike's fiddle playing and the thick swampy sound of Dan's dobro... Do you have yourself a band?... I "WRECK N SOW"
