Loud, obnoxious and unapologetic
History
Seasoned San Diego punk group, Wabash Cannons get their name from Wabash Hall which hosted some of the best punk shows of the 1980's. Band members Adam Henderson on guitar, Cameron Norred on drums, Knikki Royster with vocals and George Aivolos on bass all have had many past-lives in the San Diego Punk scene. Cameron has a long history drumming with several San Diego bands including The Infected, Puzzle Box, Wax Models (Las Vegas), The Union, Confederats, PBR and Media Backlash. Adam Henderson brings the chaos with chainsaw-like guitar and power. His accolades include Open Container, Filner Headlock and founding member of Strychnine 99. On bass George Nikolas, a long time musician in southern California, was a founding member of hardcore punk band Euthanasia and hardcore band, Plot To Kill. In 2021 the boys adopted female lead singer Knikki Royster to take the band in a different direction. She became a quick study, injecting decades of social justice work with at-risk youth, women’s’ causes and free speech into her lyrics. She has made appearances singing, recording and performing with Inciting Riots, Skullbusters, Ramblin’ Outlaws and Broke Bastards.
Former members include Travis Davidson, of Battalion of Saints and Ugly Lenny of Inciting Riots, Social Spit and 13 Wölves.
Wabash are currently creating new material, playing gigs and are very excited to be part of the "Punk Renaissance" happening in Southern California.
