“Powered by the dynamic vocals of Meghan Parnell and the blistering slide guitar work of Dave Barnes, this Toronto-based band has been generating acclaim throughout their native Canada and now the rest of the world,” raves AMERICAN BLUES SCENE.
Powerhouse 7-piece Southern Soul, Blues, Roots Rock, Jam Band BYWATER CALL released their newest acclaimed album ‘Shepherd’ on August 9, 2024. The band recently won “Best International Artist” at the 2024 UK Blues Awards! “Meghan Parnell’s voice might be what happens if Susan Tedeschi and Bonny Raitt had a secret Canadian love child…” raves ROCK & BLUES MUSE. Bywater Call produces a glorious wall of sound, and the band has toured Europe extensively, including a mainstage appearance at the Netherlands premiere blues festival MOULIN BLUES. They have headlined festival stages in countries all over the world, including Belgium, Canada, Germany, the USA, and many others! In 2023, the band participated in Joe Bonamassa’s Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea Mediterranean Cruise. “Perhaps it’s the full band sound with horns, perhaps the slide and powerful female vocals, but, for this reviewer, there is a Tedeschi Trucks feel to Bywater Call’s music…” raves BLUES BLAST MAGAZINE.
