Here is a little rundown on the members of Waterparks and the friends that they hang out with a lot!
Awsten Constantine Knight
Birthday: January 17, 1992
Role: Lead singer and rhythm guitarist
Took his driver's license picture to look naked
Legally changed his name from "Austin" to "Awsten."
Awsten is one of the most interesting people I had to learn about. He created Waterparks as one of his passion projects. He has synesthesia, which means he sees sounds and hears colors. He also has heterochromia, which means his eyes are different colors. He made his own fashion line called High Definition Industries. Awsten is really chaotic most of the time, but he does have a sweetness to him.
Geoff Wigington
Birthday: July 2, 1989
Role: Lead guitarist
Legend of Zelda enthusiast
Has a child
Geoff is an absolute sweetheart. He is not the best with words, but he always brightens up everyone's day. He brings a comfortable presence with him. There was an ongoing joke that Geoff loves minions, but he absolutely despises them. I love Geoff and you should too.
Otto Danielle Wood
Birthday: December 20, 1990
Role: Drummer
Possibly a serial killer
Never used the Internet, he literally had to ask Awsten if it costs anything to make a Gmail.
Otto may look like Weird Al's ripped nephew, but he's not. He's allegedly the most unhinged member of Waterparks. He actually got inspired to play the drums because of the drummer in the animatronic band at Chuck E. Cheese. Other than that, not much is known about him since he does not use any form of social media. His biggest music inspiration is My Chemical Romance though!
The following people are not actually a part of Waterparks but are closely related to them. They do interact with the band a lot, so if you are joining the FANDOM (like the album hahah), you should definitely become familiar with these people.
Jawn Rocha
Birthday: September 18, 1992
Role: Photographer, mainly just for Waterparks but he takes photos for other bands too!
Jawn has been a friend of Awsten's for a long time, he even was a part of the same band as him before Waterparks. Jawn eventually found his place in photography and he streams on Twitch occasionally.
Travis M. Riddle
Birthday: December 24, 1992(?)
Occupation: Author
Travis has known Awsten before the band was a thing. He has helped Waterparks with various things: correcting their lyrics on Genius.com, giving his opinion on their music before released, starring in some of their music videos, and overall just being a good friend. Travis has also written a couple of books, such as Mother Pig and Balam, Spring.
Zephani Jong (Zeph)
Birthday: April 18, 1999
Occupation: Singer
Zeph is one of the band's most recent friends, she made a vocal appearance on the song "Crying Over It All." She makes and produces some of her own music, most of which just being little songs she uploads on YouTube. Awsten actually recorded guitar for her song "scared of everything." Zeph has built a pretty large digital footprint, mostly just tweeting her thoughts out on Twitter. She is focused on growing and becoming the artist she wants to be.
De'Wayne Jackson
Birthday: June 27, 1995
Occupation: Rapper
De'Wayne has been buddies with Waterparks for quite some time now. He's toured with them a couple of times and even provided some vocals for the song "LIKE IT." Though, Awsten did a feature on his song "Perfume." De'Wayne has mixed the genres of rock and rap to create his own unique sound. His mission was to show no one should live in boxes and neither should their music.
For the Zach Sang Show in 2019, Awsten wears a limited edition XLARGE×De'Wayne Jackson shirt (no longer for sale). He pairs it with a US Army denim jacket.
