About Wes
Lots of humor, a smidge of darkness, a fair amount of reflection, and lots of fun.
I’m just a regular dude with regular faults, regular issues, regular struggles, and maybe even a few mental deficiencies… just a dude who happens to have a warped sense of humor and a love for various genres of music.
Musically, I love to make you laugh, cry, and maybe even think about something. Isn’t that what this entire human existence is about anyway? We’re not always up or down. We spend a good bit of time right in the middle, so why can’t a musician’s music be the same way? We can be silly and serious. We can be reflective and sophomoric. That’s what people are, and I’m a people.
A pandemic positive: Thanks to the state of the economy, I’ve rediscovered the joy of making music, writing tunes, and performing for others.
Like so many, I feel I have a story to tell and the best way for me to do that is with a guitar in my hand, and a mic in front of me. I love doing this, and I sincerely hope that my stories somehow resonate with you.
