Hi,
I have been listening, researching and playing old time music since I was 20 years old, and discovered a love for old bluegrass, blues and western swing music.
Around 2004-2005 I formed the band “Waitin’ On A Train” with my good friend Tony Staub. Between 2005 and 2015 Waitin’ On A Train was very active in the York Music Scene, playing many local venues, events and benefits.

Hi,
I have been listening, researching and playing old time music since I was 20 years old, and discovered a love for old bluegrass, blues and western swing music.
Around 2004-2005 I formed the band “Waitin’ On A Train” with my good friend Tony Staub. Between 2005 and 2015 Waitin’ On A Train was very active in the York Music Scene, playing many local venues, events and benefits. Also traveling within Pennsylvania and frequently booking gigs in Maryland, New York, Delaware, Virginia, and West Virginia.
With the birth of my first son, I had to slow things down and leave the band in 2015. I was still able to play a few shows and open mics each year, and always continued to hone my song craft at home.
Recently in 2021, I formed a new act with my friend Farmer Jon backing me up as “The Ploughboys” we have been well received playing a mix of bluesy-jazzy-bluegrass music I refer to as “Old Time – Good Time – Roots Music”. We have also play a full Traditional Irish Folk set at several local venues, around St. Patrick’s Day festivities.
My goal is always; to have and spread fun, to play the old time music I love so well and to create new music and arrangements that fit the “old timey” style.
Thank You, Paul Wykowski
