The Self Portrait Gospel :: Podcast

Season 7 Ep. #11 - Wes Tirey


Listen Later

The Ohio-born, North Carolina-based singer-songwriter and poet, Wes Tirey has been releasing music for well over a decade now with such titles like "O, Annihilator", "Black Wind", "No Winners in the Blues" and his most recent effort entitled "Wes Tirey Sings Selected Works of Billy the Kid", that came out on Sun Cru earlier this summer. Based on the 1970 novel by Michael Ondaatje, Tirey successfully manifested the timeless spirit of Billy the Kid, while simultaneously narrating the landscape of an old American legend that is both infamous and melodically told. On this episode of the podcast we expore Tirey's past, present and future in music, iconic influences in the arts, his career in coffee culture, our mutual obsession with Dylan, literature and its romantic impact on society, his writing and recording process and much more.
