Waller at Matilda’s

Saturday, July 13, 2013

Each Saturday from June through August, Matilda’s in Alpharetta hosts their Under the Pines Summer Concert Series. Local and regional acts perform on stage in an intimate setting on the front porch of Waltzing Matilda’s cabin nestled off of Main Street. Concert goers can bring their chairs or a blanket, food and spirits and enjoy live music without having to travel downtown or pay an arm and a leg for tickets. The pine covered open field has an eclectic feel with small buildings surrounding the area painted with Americana. On this particular Saturday, the rain held off and Waller, a four person band out of Atlanta, took the stage. Waller is made up of singer/guitarist Jason Waller, singer Tiffany Blalock, bassist Billy Lyons and guitarist Zac Caplan. The band, which mixes country with bluegrass and blues, has one full length album entitled Stoke the Fire and an EP My Poor Queen under their belt.
