Bywater Call Own The Fallout Shelter Stage

When the most respected music publications and journalists hold you up as the next "biggest band on the planet" you have a LOT to live up to. Bywater Call may very well become the next biggest band in the world...the next generation of Tedeschi Trucks or Lake Street Dive... for many reasons. They are certainly on the same level musically. Bywater Call is as good as any band we've ever hosted at The Fallout Shelter. They have seven musicians in the band and all seven of them are absolutely breathtaking players. They write incredible music. They are fronted by one of the most dynamic front women since Janis Joplin. They simply have every piece in place to become globally unstoppable. We're not sure how many more times we're going to see Bywater Call so we're going to host them as often as we can. They are a show not to be missed...before long you'll be one of 18,000 so you really should see them when you're one of 90.

Meghan Parnell (vocals) and Dave Barnes (guitar) are the founding members of Bywater Call, a powerhouse seven-piece Southern soul, roots rock band from Toronto, Canada. The band is completed by Bruce McCarthy on drums, Mike Meusel on Bass, newest member, John Kervin on Keys, Stephen Dyte on Trumpet and Julian Nalli on Tenor Sax.

In August 2023, the band participated in Joe Bonamassa’s third Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea Mediterranean Cruise alongside headliners Blackberry Smoke and Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, and were invited to perform at the All-Star Jam on the mainstage with Bonamassa himself. Guitarist Dave Barnes was also asked to join legendary blues artist Jimmy Vivino (Conan O’Brien’s Basic Cable Band) on stage.

Bywater Call have commanded festival stages in Canada and around the world, often referred to as the “find of the fest”. In May of 2023, they opened for Canadian Award-winning band White Horse at the inaugural Smokestack Music Festival in Hamilton, Ontario. In July, Meghan joined renowned pedal-steel guitarist Robert Randolph on stage at his request, at the Briggs Farm Festival in Nescopeck, PA.

On October 24, 2023, Bywater performed a live stream performance for the famed German TV show and festival Rockpalast.

In 2023 alone, the band played a total of 96 shows in 10 countries, 89 Cities, 19 US States and 3 Canadian Provinces.

The band’s music is an exploration of life’s highs and lows. From intimate ballads that lay bare the complexities of human emotion to electrifying anthems that demand to be played at full volume, their catalogue is a journey through the human experience, incorporating influences from the likes of The Band, The Wood Brothers, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Otis Redding, Little Feat, Sly and the Family Stone, among others.
