Born in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, multi-instumentalist Malcolm B. “Mac” Wiseman is considered one of the best solo singers in the history of bluegrass music. Mac was exposed to traditional and religious music from an early age, in his home and community, as well as from records and on the radio.
My dad had the first hand-wound table model phonograph in our area. And we had the first radio. So people would gather in at our place to listen to the radio and play records on a Saturday night. And, by that time, Jacksonville, Florida had a barn dance – and Hopkinsville, Kentucky – and so you could just go from one to another and listen all night. My mom would cook ‘em breakfast and they’d go home, you know?
Known for his smooth, clear tenor voice, Wiseman gradually gathered an immense repertory of songs that eventually surpassed nearly all country music artists. He began performing as an upright bass player in Molly O’Day’s band in 1946, playing with her in Knoxville and Atlanta and on her recordings for Columbia. The following year, he formed his own band, the Country Boys, performing with them on Bristol, Virginia’s popular radio barn dance, Farm and Fun Time. He performed as a guitarist and featured singer with Flatt & Scruggs as one of the original Foggy Mountain Boys in 1948, and with Bill Monroe on the Grand Ole Opry in 1949.
Bill Monroe had come through Bristol and was playing the local theater. And it was customary then, if you played locally, you’d come over to the country radio program and plug your show dates. Well, right on the air, Monroe said, to me – he was on the microphone with the Foggy Mountain Boys – he said, “If you ever want a job on the Opry, just call me.” Well it made Flatt mighty, mighty angry.
In 1950, Wiseman struck out on his own with a new incarnation of the Country Boys. He was enormously successful, averaging three hundred personal appearances each year throughout the following decade. Unlike Monroe or Flatt & Scruggs, he usually sang alone, with little or no harmonizing. Wiseman’s voice had excellent range and precise articulation and, due to its unusually expressive nature, he became known as “the voice with a heart.” His first Top 10 country hit was his 1955 version of “The Ballad of Davy Crockett,” followed by “Jimmy Brown the Newsboy,” which climbed to No. 5 in 1959. Other popular songs were “Love Letters in the Sand,” “Little White Church,” “Dreaming of a Little Cabin,” and his novelty song, “Charlie’s Pride and Johnny’s Cash.”
During the folk revival of the 1960s and the decades following, Wiseman was one of the most popular performers on the bluegrass circuit. He had successful concerts at the Hollywood Bowl and Carnegie Hall, and was the headliner at the first single-day bluegrass gathering, held in August 1960 at Watermelon Park, Berryville, Virginia. In 2014 he was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
