“Ready To Ride is a country rocker that is quintessentially me,” shares Wesley. “It explores my love for both country and rock without either getting in each other's way. I would like to dedicate this single to my manager, Brian Abrams who believed in me unconditionally. We lost him just before Christmas and I hope he is smiling down, knowing that he helped me in every way be “Ready To Ride.”

Will Wesley exudes an enduring tenacity that life's challenges have etched into him. From a rebellious spirit, sneaking into bars at 15 with a beard to disguise his age, to captivating audiences with his beat-up guitar on stage, Wesley's musical journey began in the Baton Rouge blues scene. Touring with legends like Larry Garner and winning the New Orleans regional division of the International Blues Challenge twice, he later served as the Music Director for Grammy-winning Blues Artist Grady Champion. Despite his accolades, Wesley faced personal and professional crossroads, leading him to discover solace in country music. In 2020, he collaborated with producer Phil Chandler on the album "Both Sides of the Tracks," featuring the popular single "Attitude," which topped the charts in Milan. Wesley's career soared, touring globally and collaborating with Swiss Rockabilly Star Florian Fox. However, tragedy struck in 2021 when his brother Daniel succumbed to a heroin overdose. Channeling grief into inspiration, Wesley is crafting a new set of songs, blending his rocker edge with a tender heart, marking the beginning of what promises to be a legendary career.

About Will Wesley:
Grit has forever seeped from the pores of country rocker Will Wesley. He was born a rebellious one, sneaking into bars at the age of 15 to play the blues that pumped through his veins. But today, Wesley follows in the footsteps of artists such as Eric Church and Jason Aldean, more than ready to show off his rock edge as much as his tender lyrical heart. And despite a career that has already found him touring several countries in Europe and Southeast Asia, performing in venues such as the Switzerland International Country Music Hall of Fame and the Jackson, Mississippi Civil Rights Museum, playing alongside the likes of Alabama, Jason Boland & the Stragglers and Robert Cray, this is somewhat a new beginning for Will Wesley as he finds himself ready to conquer the world.
