Small-town Okeechobee, FL is where the wild-eyed boy called home in his younger years. Hank Williams, Garth Brooks, Conway Twitty, Waylon Jennings, and Keith Whitley were among the cassette tapes coming through the speakers of his single-mother’s run down Lincoln back then. It was a simple time and place, and a perfect foundation for the country music artist in the making.

As time went on, his Mom remarried and got a new job and the family moved from the small town and set out for metro Atlanta, GA. This is where Wade began listening to rock n’ roll. He was hooked on everything from the Elvis classics to Creedence Clearwater Revival to Lynyrd Skynyrd to Rage Against the Machine. Sometimes called an outlaw rocker, sometimes a neo-traditionalist, Wade brings a lot to the country music table and there’s something to be found for everyone old and new.
