Wylie & The Wild West - Relic (2014)

Wylie Gustafson earned his mastery of cowboy/country music and its core subject matters the hardest way and almost certainly the best way- by playing thousands of shows and working his family’s fourth generation Montana ranch as he experiences the life that gives his music a dynamic that is inherently genuine.
It’s been a long and magnificent ride playing in a little 4 piece cowboy band performing our unique style of western music that has so far lasted over 25 years. Our art has taken us to 45 of the 50 United States and all the way around the world. Along the way we have discovered a loyal following of music lovers who appreciate what we do. I can tell you that being a “yodeling cowboy” in the 21st century is not the easiest way of making living… but it has never failed to be rewarding. Like a coyote eking out a living on the remote American plains we have somehow survived against all odds. The golden era of country (1950s- 1960s) has always been a part of the solid foundation that supports our style. We revisit those classic sounds in our own unique way on Relic.
