Will Wesley
Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know country singer / songwriter Will Wesley. In this episode, we chat about his growing up in the Baton Rouge area, and what got him into music. Naturally we discuss the best Cajun food in his local area, and he tells me a couple of cool restaurants to eat at. Next, we move into how he gained his country & blues street cred, by competing in battle of the bands style pickin' contests. Will explains to me why he decided to cover the timeless gospel song 'Go Tell it on The Mountain'. and what makes his different than the rest. Then we talk about his new single '12 O'clock In Texas'. We spend most of the episode talking about the reasons he wrote this song, and the tragic loss of his brother. The conversation turns to sobriety, and addiction. I ask Will about some of the places he has played, and some of the places he will play on the current tour. Luckenbach! Finally, we discuss his recent experiences at The Josie Awards and working with some folk & bluegrass icons on a couple of musical collaborations. Make sure you check out 'Both Sides Of The Tracks', 'A New Kind of Blues', and 'Leah'. Do NOT miss him on tour in 2025! Check out WillWesleyMusic.com for tour dates and venues.
