Loaded tracks

Loaded cover
"Originally pigeonholed as solely a bluegrass band, the Waybacks’ genre-hopping and myriad influences make 'Loaded' seem like a mixtape made just for you by your infinitely cooler friend. The sound may not be easily categorized, but it is damn good." - Juli Thanki, PopMatters
