About this Event
Will Wesley is a Country Rock and Americana artist. A storyteller whose sound blends a soulful edge with country rock energy into heartfelt storytelling. Born in Baker, Louisiana, Wesley was raised with a rebellious spirit and a love for music inspired by his father’s guitar. By age 15, he was sneaking into bars to perform with a beat-up six-string and a fire that would soon define his music career.
He paved his path in the Baton Rouge blues scene, performing and touring alongside with legendary figures. He served as Grady Champion’s Music Director for five years. His talent earned him two International Blues Challenge regional victories and a reputation as one of Louisiana’s fiercest young guitarists.
But Wesley’s journey took a turn when life’s hardships — including personal battles and deep loss — pushed him toward a new musical path. Drawing inspiration from artists like Hank Williams, Marty Stuart, Garth Brooks, Jason Aldean, and Eric Church, he began merging his blues background with the modern energy of country rock and americana.
In 2021, Wesley released his breakthrough album, “Both Sides Of The Tracks.” The record featured 17 original songs, including “A New Kind of Blues” (feat. Kern Pratt), “Leah” (feat. Michael Cleveland), and “Attitude”, which reached #1 on the Euro Academy of Country Music Charts in Milan, Italy. The project marked his official crossover from blues prodigy to full-fledged country-rock and americana artist.
Tragedy struck in January 2021, when Wesley lost his brother Daniel Dale to a drug overdose — a loss that became the emotional core of his 2024 single “12 O’Clock in Texas,” his most personal song to date. The single’s heartfelt storytelling and raw emotion struck a deep chord with fans around the world.
Wesley followed with “The Search” (2024) and his latest single, “Bottom Of The Bottle” (October 2025) — a powerhouse track with a harder rock edge that’s rapidly gaining momentum and airplay.
Today, Wesley tours across the U.S., Europe, and Southeast Asia, performing everywhere from intimate listening rooms to international stages, including the Switzerland International Country Music Hall of Fame and the Jackson, Mississippi Civil Rights Museum.
He shared stages with many including Alabama, RVSHVD, Jason Boland & the Stragglers, Redd Volkaert, When In Rome, Old Crow Medicine Show, Scotty McCreery, Hailey Whitters, and shared international stages with Swiss Rockabilly Star - Florian Fox, collaborating on Will's singles, “Wasted Again” and “Time's Catching Up To Me.”
In recognition of his accomplishments, he received seven nominations for his song, “Ready To Ride” at the 2024 Josie Music Awards. In addition, he received five nominations for his songs “12 O'Clock in Texas” and “The Search” at the 2025 Josie Music Awards. Both within Nashville, Tennessee.
Despite the road miles as a devoted Worldwide Touring Troubadour, Wesley returns home to Louisiana in-between tours for hometown shows, staying true to his roots and fans. Known for his humility and heart, he continues to give back by performing at Veterans’ events and outreach programs — bringing the healing power of music to those who need it most.
