Dede & the Do-Rights

Dede Wyland has forged her musical career in the great world of bluegrass music as a nationally and internationally known singer and touring artist. Since moving to the D.C. area, she has been the recipient of 11 Washington Area Music Association Awards for her singing.

But now, with her band The Do-Rights, Dede focuses her energy on her other lifelong musical passion, rock ‘n’ roots country! Dede has joined forces with some of the DC area’s top classic rockers to present their version of this fun and exciting music for which they have a shared passion.

Multi-instrumentalist Bill Williams, a cream of the crop and in-demand roots rock musician in the DC area, not only wows with his sizzling guitar licks, but also captivates his audiences with an amazing voice that pleases the senses and draws you right into the story.

You always know the groove is going to be superb when Scott McKnight takes the stage. Scott is also a multi-instrumentalist and veteran of the greater DC area roots rock scene, and his pleasing baritone voice can both deliver a song with great style or beautifully fill out the Do-Right’s trio sound.
