  • Colter Wall graces us with some laid-back fingerpicking, playing our gorgeous 1937 Martin 00-17 set with a vintage DeArmond acoustic pickup.
    Wall recorded a seven-song EP, Imaginary Appalachia, with Jason Plumb as producer in 2015 at Studio One in Regina, Saskatchewan.He collaborated on the EP with other artists from Regina such as Belle Plaine and The Dead South. He described his music as a blend of blues, folk and Americana. The EP was released on March 9, 2015, and "The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie" was released as his first single. His music gained more attention in late 2015 when professional wrestler Brock Lesnar mentioned him as a favorite artist during an interview with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin Songs from the album were featured in the television show Dog the Bounty Hunter, and the films Hell or High Water and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. The track used in the films, "Sleeping on the Blacktop", gained more than a million streams on Spotify.
    In 2016, Wall opened for Lucinda Williams at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. He was signed to Rick Rubin's American Songs publishing company.
    His first full-length album, self-titled Colter Wall, was produced by Dave Cobb at the RCA Studio A in Nashville. Wall was accompanied by Cobb on acoustic guitar, Chris Powell on drums, Mike Webb on piano, and Robby Turner on pedal steel.[9] The album was released on May 12, 2017 and according to Wall, most of the songs on the album are autobiographical.
    His second album, Songs of the Plains, was announced in July 2018 and was released on October 12, 2018. In June 2020, Wall announced his third album, Western Swing & Waltzes and Other Punchy Songs for release on August 28 with independent label, La Honda Records.

      I hear you on that. I pretty much have been listening exclusively to him for almost a year. Hes simply the best I've ever heard, no one even compares.... but I dont veiw his music as country. Western maybe... but even that doesnt quite fit. It's almost in a genre of its own... this song sums up his entire career so far too me... I always thought of cowboys as people who were miserable because they were so lonely, but they learned to embrace there misery to the point where they couldnt part with it, and found happiness in it... and that's how I see myself and Colter Wall
