Webb Wilder

Webb Wilder, The Last Of The Full Grown Men, is large enough for the big screen, hip enough to star in cult classic B movies, and tough enough to maintain a devoted worldwide fan base. Equally versed in two glorious worlds, Rock and Roll – with a strong side of Outlaw Country. He is a force on tour and a tour de force. He is an Electrifying Artist and Roots Rock Royalty.

Webb has been an early adopter of using all manner of media to make an impression beyond his 11 albums. He was one of America’s first satellite DJ’s on Sirius Radio, the X-Country channel and is now a DJ and host of the Americana Countdown on Nashville’s WMOT-FM. He starred in cult movie classics featuring the character of Webb Wilder, created by his old pal R.S. Field. Field is the man whose music and visions long ago helped mild-mannered young ‘un John Webb McMurry of Hattiesburg become rock ’n’ roll’s “Electrifying Artist,” Webb Wilder. Beginning with 1986’s classic debut 'It Came From Nashville,' Wilder emerged as a barnstorming hero who delivered a peculiar mix of rockabilly, poetry, and tomfoolery. These days, some folks call Wilder’s music Americana, though it is as impacted by mods and British Invaders (of the guitar-wielding kind) as it is by the country music he’s heard all his life or the blues and R&B sounds recorded by his aunt Lillian, who founded Trumpet Records and recorded Elmore James and Sonny Boy Williamson. To throw more genres in the mix, Paste Magazine put 'It Came From Nashville' on their list of The 50 Best Southern Rock Albums of All Time.
