Bywater Call Tickets

Acclaimed 7-piece Southern Soul, Blues, Roots Rock, Jam Band Bywater Call is a powerhouse 7-piece band out of Toronto, Canada.

In 2020, Bywater Call won a Maple Blues Award (Canada) for "Best New Artist" after the release of their self-titled debut album. Their first album received critical acclaim and stellar reviews across all territories and placed #1 on the Roots Music Report. The Band's much anticipated sophomore album 'Remain' was released September 2022 worldwide.

Bywater Call was formed in 2017, and they have been Maple Blues and Independent Blues Award Nominated and have made waves in the Canadian Festival Circuit. In November 2021, Meghan was a featured performer at the Women's Blues Review at Toronto's historic Roy Thompson Hall.

The band also had the opportunity to tour Europe twice, featuring a mainstage appearance at the Netherlands' premiere blues festival MOULIN BLUES. Performances there have been praised in Dutch and German media, with references to Meghan as one of the best singers in blues and roots today.

In August 2023, the band will participate in Joe Bonamassa's Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea Mediterranean Cruise alongside headliners Blackberry Smoke, Christone "Kingfish" Ingram and Bonamassa himself. They have headlined festival stages from Belgium to Ontario, Canada, and in 2023 will be gracing festival mainstages from Germany to Florida, Colorado to Quebec City, Fredericton to Kentucky, among many other American and Canadian cities, including opening for White Horse at the inaugural edition of the Smoke Stack Music Festival in Hamilton Ontario.

Bywater won the opportunity to compete in the 2023 edition of famed International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee, but instead Meghan and Dave found themselves in the UK opening for the Joe Bonamassa supported band Robert Jon and the Wreck out of the US.

BYWATER CALL includes: Meghan Parnell (Lead Vocals); Dave Barnes (Guitar); Stephen Dyte (Trumpet); Bruce McCarthy (Drums); Mike Meusel (Bass); Julian Nalli (Saxophone); and Alan Zemaitis (Keyboards) - and together they produce a glorious wall of sound!
