Lots of great comments after our show at SPACE last Wednesday. Words that wafted over us: Powerful, Beautiful, Inspiring, Rocking, Grooving, Transcendent. Pretty fabulous. A very joyful & enthusiastic response to our funky, organic, homemade thing: 21st Century Druid Music.

Maybe my favorite comment of all was from our great friend Lisa, an incredibly beautiful soul and a consummate creative spirit.

Lisa says: “WWSP is becoming a whole ecosystem unto itself, a self sustaining planet, a movement!” 

Nice. We do love Mother Earth and our movement is definitely based here. We like to speak to and for the trees, the rivers, the mountains, and all the pretty creatures. But, yeah, we have kind of become our own living, breathing, ecosystem. It wasn’t planned, it just evolved that way. Last Wednesday it was a no-holds-barred, beautifully-joyous noise-making, 8-member collective. As Carla always reminds me: “It’s about the vibrations, Jammer.” Yes, indeed, it is… – Jammer

Big love to all the beautiful humans who came out to last nights show at Space. It was an amazing night! Magic! Jammer and I were delighted to be-able to share our story songs and little prayers to the interconnectedness of all things with you all and to send the wwsp vibrations out into the universe.


Thank you to The Mixture for sharing the night with us. Love! Love! Love! Thank you, thank you, thank you to the staff at Space! Thank you to Tess for making everything run smoothly and Johanas!!!!!!! (I hope I got the spelling right here) WWSP is kind of a beast for the sound tech, and the sound was fantastic!!!!! – Carla

If you are going be interviewed about music or any other creative thing, you definitely want to be interviewed by the incomparable pop culture, multi-media dynamo Pat McDonald at HollywoodChicago.com Pat is sort a test-tube baby made from Chicago Media Powerhouses: a dash of Oprah Winfrey, mixed with Studs Terkel, Siskel/Ebert and Irv Kupcinet (know your history people!). Be sure to check out the Lovely Carla Hayden‘s story about meeting Steve Albini at Electrical Audio

HollywoodChicago.com: As you both write songs together … how does what you bring to each other as songwriters help you to complete a song?

Carla: I feel a song can be anything, everything. A prayer, a story, a healing agent, joy, sorrow, a message in a bottle, a universe, or a door opening.

Hello Friends & Family – Thank you all for your kind and generous contributions to our Indiegogo campaign for our next album. We expect to release “Seeds of Light,” early in 2024. Lots of work left to do. Every contributor to our campaign will receive a copy of the album. If you chose a t-shirt as a “perk,” they will be mailed out to you soon. We are so honored and humbled by your support. – Peace & Love – Carla & James

This is our “friends and families show.” It’s a tangled web of long time relationships. The Telepaths and WWSP are more than kissing cousins, I mean it gets sticky, beyond the “mayonnaise stage.” And Chris Bock is more than just a valued brother in arms. Power-lines and guitars and good vibes will rule. Be on the lookout for the Ghost of Nelson Algren in the corner. With Carla Hayden, Pat McDonald, Christopher Bock, Tim O’Brien, Randy Farr & Nura A. – Jammer

Mr. Mo

Mr. Mo. our great friend; fabulous raconteur, r&r savant, witty-tunesmith, ukulele-wielding, fellow-traveler & uncommonly harmonic, musical-obsessive, was conversing with CHAT AI via his beloved iPad one recent evening. It is the kind of thing Mr. Mo often does.

CHAT AI – HAL 9000

Mr. Mo playfully, or was it mischievously, encouraged CHAT AI to “write a Edgar Allan Poe story about a Druid rock band named WWSP…”

Holy Smokes. Combine EAP, Druids & WWSP (21st Century Druid Music) it all rings so cosmically, mystically, and comedically, true. We are thinking that “… beckoning all who will listen to join them in ecstatic communion with the gods,” is a great mission statement for our band. Yes, indeed. Thank you Mr. Mo. Thank you Mr. Poe. Thank you CHAT AI. Druids Unite! – Jammer
