The Wakefields
The Wakefields are an alt-country band based out of Seattle Washington that was formed in 2004 as the by-product of friendships started in previous projects. In December 2004, they released a promotional EP, and soon followed with the release of a full-length CD titled Falling Down Blue. The debut CD from The Wakefields featured, horns, tympani, Hammond Organ, pedal steel, percussion and accordion, all wrapped into a package of West Coast Americana music that would never be found in Nashville. Falling Down Blue contains twelve original songs and was recorded and produced by Seattle engineer Martin Feveyear who has worked with many great bands including The Presidents of the United States of America, The Minus 5 and The Village Green indie rock/country.
