Wieuca is comprised of bassist Jack Webster, guitarist Jack O’Reilly, drummer Robert Smith and singer/guitarist Will Ingram. The Atlanta-based band plays mostly alternative rock, with some rap and country influences. Smith and Ingram met in 2005 and began playing in Smith’s parent’s basement together.
“We mainly played covers of classic rock tunes such The Who’s ‘Baba O’ Riley’ and ‘My Generation,'” said Smith. Ingram continued, “We definitely played some Green Day songs as well and we’ve been rocking together ever since.”
They love the diversity of artists that Atlanta has to offer and enjoy performing with a myriad of artists in the area. The Earl and 529 in East Atlanta are two of Ingram’s favorite places to see shows and perform in Atlanta. One of the featured songs in the segment is “Love Shack,” inspired by the B-52s.
