Newport

Long before there were Kings of Leon, Keys of Black or Whites of Jack in Music City there was a riddle spewing prophet of roots rock and roll. A bluesy blast of baritone bombast. Equally versed in two glorious worlds, Rock and Roll with a strong side of Outlaw Country. He is a force on tour and a tour de force. He is the last of the Full Grown Men and Roots Rock Royalty. A native of Hattiesburg, Wilders 1986 debut album, It Came from Nashville, was named one of the 50 Best Southern Rock Albums of All-Time by Paste Magazine. Webb was honored to participate in Shemekia Copelands recent Grammy nominated LP Uncivil War co-writing and performing on the track She Dont Wear Pink. Hes been in a number of movies, but is best known for his cult classic short films: Webb Wilder Private Eye, Horror Hayride and Scattergun. Webbs engaging personality led him to become one of Americas first Satellite DJs on XM Radio. Hes now a DJ and the host of the Americana Countdown show on WMOT radio/Nashville as well as continuing his three decade career as an Electrifying Artist on stages worldwide. His newest release is Night Without Love released in 2020 on Landslide Records.
