Interview | Wayland Ginger and Nuts
This week, we’re diving into a blast from the past with Wayland’s heartwarming track, “Indiana Jones.” Diana Cavazos Woloszyk shares her emotional connection to this timeless tune that’s been taking the country rock scene by storm.
My first encounter with Wayland was serendipitous at a charity event in Rockford, Illinois. Their raw, acoustic energy instantly captivated me, and “Indiana Jones” stood out.
This song, a nostalgic trip through the ’80s, evoked memories of MTV, Reese’s Pieces, and E.T. Mitch Arnold’s heartfelt delivery of the line “I never want to let it go” resonated deeply, stirring up a wave of childhood nostalgia.
Originally written and recorded in 2019, “Indiana Jones” exploded on TikTok in 2023, connecting with a massive audience seeking a connection to their past.
Meeting Mitch and Phil after the show, I was impressed by their down-to-earth nature and passion for their music. Their success on social media is no surprise, as this song has resonated with countless people who found their memories reflected in the lyrics.
As Wayland continues their Midwest tour, I anticipate their upcoming show at the Top Fuel Saloon in Braidwood, Illinois. Conveniently, it falls the day after my 55th birthday, making it the perfect way to celebrate with a band that now holds a special place in my heart.
If you haven’t heard “Indiana Jones,” I urge you to listen. Wayland’s storytelling, melodic flair, and authentic performances make this track a must-have for fans of country rock or anyone seeking a blast of nostalgia.
Check out their new album On The Way, and follow them on all social platforms. You won’t regret it.
