As September began and fall approached, Wes Mack was able to see 2 years of work and waiting come to an end as his first full length album, Edge Of The Storm, was released to the world!
Note: Thanks to KX Country (94.7 Hamilton and 95.9 Oshawa) for hosting the event and to Pete and Linda for sharing the introduction duties!
Wes Mack Edge Of The Storm Release Party Set List
Heart Back Home – The Way You Let Me Down – Listen To Me – Before You Drive Me Crazy – Edge Of The Storm – Duet
The first single from this record actually came out back in 2013 when Wes teamed up with Carly McKillip of One More Girl for Duet, which is still a fan favourite, and gave Wes the opportunity to invite a bunch of his talented female friends up on stage to sing with him this year when he was opening for Shania Twain on the first leg of her tour. It was also a Top 10 hit, peaking at #9 and introducing a new member of the Canadian country music family to the masses.
We’ve had more than 1 chance to listen through the entire 12 tracks on Edge Of The Storm, and we can tell you this: Wes did good.
This is a guy that started out indie, DIY, solo and was able to team up with Universal Music/ Big Machine Canada to make more music and work on making his dreams come true.
He’s turning into a regular on country radio, you’ve seen his videos for Before You Drive Me Crazy and The Way You Let Me Down on CMT and YouTube, and there are more tracks coming on this album that are going to get the single release and video treatment – for sure.
Edge Of The Storm slides from uptempo fun to slowed down storytelling and has no issues with the transitions. Wes and the team of songwriters and musicians that he’s worked with on this album have come together in all the right ways. This doesn’t so much sound like the debut of an artist as it does a coming out party.
