Singer / Songwriter FROM THE PINEY WOODS -

"I mean, I never shot anybody's dog". Got rowdy with the boys, made a little noise...
​
Hailing from the Piney Woods of East Texas, Wright began playing guitar and writing music at the age of eleven, using music as a much-needed escape from the turbulence
of his fractured family. As a teenager, he found inspiration in an eclectic mix of genres—drawing from the raw, rebellious spirit of country outlaws and Southern storytelling, the grit of Seattle grunge, and the rhythmic edge of urban hip-hop. This
fusion of styles would become the foundation of Wright’s distinctive musical identity, one that continues to evolve with every song he writes.
​
By the time he reached college, Wright's life had become a whirlwind of good times and trouble. Struggling with addiction and frequent run-ins with the law, his path eventually
took a turn. After spending time in county jail, he developed a deeper appreciation for the things he was on the verge of losing.
​
In 2016, Wright was diagnosed with acute liver failure. It was during this life-altering period that he made the decision to get sober. Reinvigorated by his newfound clarity, he reignited his passion for music and soon began performing professionally.
​
Six years after his health scare, Wright released his debut EP ‘What Makes This Garden Grow,’ a testament to his personal experience overcoming life’s obstacles, falling in love with his wife and finding peace within.
