Wilder Blue

Texas-based, The Wilder Blue travels the borderland between musical
genres, busting down the gates that separate country, bluegrass, folk, and acoustic
rock
.
Primary front man and songwriter Zane Williams was already a well-established
solo act with a loyal fan base and seven albums under his belt when he reached out to
fellow Texas troubadour Paul Eason about starting a band.
Paul had three solo albums
of his own, not to mention a coveted side-man position playing lead guitar for Texas
legend Kevin Fowler, but was immediately intrigued by the project.
Houston-based drummer Lyndon Hughes was next hop on board, bringing his
passion for group vocals and extensive engineering and producing experience working
with artists like Cody Johnson, Sundance Head, Roger Creager, David Grace, and
more.
A jam session at a demo studio brought them all together with multi-
instrumentalist and singer Andy Rogers on banjo, dobro, mandolin and guitar, and the
chemistry was immediate.
Eventually the bands unique vocal blend crystallized with
the addition of Austins own Sean Rodriguez on bass and vocals
.
Recorded in Austin and Houston over a period of eleven months, the debut
album entitled Hill Country takes the listener on a sprawling journey through twelve
original songs arranged, produced, and performed by the band members themselves.
