Hailing from Northeast, OH, Wednesday Demonstration is fueled by punk rock, power chords, and protest songs. We pride ourselves on high-energy music and live shows. Our new album "A Dying First-World Nation" is available to stream now!
Singer/guitarist Chris Dum, a professor of sociology at Kent State University, founded the band in 2022. Wednesday Demonstration is the result of a childhood spent listening to Green Day and Peter, Paul, & Mary, while watching his parents protest against nuclear weapons and the School of Americas. Joining Chris are Thom on drums, Dave on guitar, and Kyle on bass.
We've played local festivals like Porchrokr (2023) and Akron Pride (2022/2023), and opened for bands like Some Kind of Nightmare, Keep Flying, Grumpster, and The Prozacs.
Our music has been featured on compilations by 8UP Records, and This is Just a Record Label, and we have been on podcasts by Punk Up the Airwaves and Knucklehead Punx.
