Waterfall Wash Release Debut Single, “Landmark”
•
They might have just released their debut single, “Landmark,” but if the name Waterfall Wash sounds incredibly familiar, it’s because we’ve been keeping you in the loop about these guys for well over a year now- and not just because the lineup includes No Country alum Andrew Johnson; we’re genuinely huge fans.
