Here's a youngster to watch . . .

Wyatt is a teenager who has only been on the scene for a couple of years. Strongly influenced by Hank Williams, Sr., he plays mostly old country music and believes that country music should not stray far from its original roots. Although you can detect his youth in his music, the richness of both his music and voice shows great promise.

Wyatt came to our attention when performing his original music at the Songwriter's Festival in Nashville in June 2010.

His national recording debut on “Waylon: The Music Inside Vol. II,” the second in a three-part series of all-star tributes to the late, great country outlaw will be released February 7, 2012. The recording also features the likes of Hank Williams Jr., Dierks Bentley, Montgomery Gentry, Jewel and Josh Thompson.
