Wally "The Dog" Parris is the backbone of the ORDAINED sound. His playing style, perfected over years and years of practice and performing, is one of the trademarks of ORDAINED. The Dog practically destroys his kit every time he plays. His style and showmanship has been a staple of the ORDAINED experience, from the bands SINception in 1996 through the preSINt day. A founding member of ORDAINED, The Dog has always made a very strong effort to give the fans their moneys worth when watching him perform.
