Listen Later

Multi-talented actor/musician/writer/director Wesley MacInnes is pleased to join the crew of Too Opinionated to talk about his new Paramount series Guilty Party.

In addition to acting, MacInnes is an international singer/songwriter under the stage name Wes Mack. His releases have yielded five Billboard top 10 hits, 13 CCMA nominations, over 12 million streams, and an international tour with Shania Twain. In light of this, he was thrilled to be cast as world-renowned music writer/producer Calvin Maxine in the upcoming film from Sony Pictures Honey Girls. The movie stars Ashanti as the international superstar triple-threat, Fancy G, hosting a talent competition to discover the next big pop star. Honey Girls is the newest movie out of the Build-A-Bear workshop, which is based on the line of the same name.

Last seen on the big screen MacInnes found himself caught in the middle of a gang war in the revenge-driven feature film Cold Pursuit, starring Liam Neeson, Laura Dern, and Emmy Rossum. Cold Pursuit reached #1 on the Netflix trending list over summer 2021 and is now available on Amazon Prime Video. Wesley has portrayed a variety of eclectic roles through a long list of television credits that include: DC's Legends of Tomorrow, iZombie, Motive, The 100, Supernatural, Continuum, Smallville, Heartland, Project Blue Book, and The Vampire Diaries. He has also taken on roles in feature films, including Power Rangers, Magic Beyond Words: The JK Rowling Story, A Dog Named Christmas, Girl House, and The Phantoms.

Beyond acting, his music career under the stage name Wes Mack has allowed him to tour and share the stage with acts like Guns 'N Roses, Erich Church, Luke Combs, and Shania Twain where he joined her onstage each night to sing her mega-hit "Party For Two". His debut album Edge of the Storm, and his sophomore follow-up SOUL amassed over 12 million streams and earned him 13 CCMA Nominations including Album of the Year. And, his latest release, Don't Change was recorded in isolation at his remote cabin in the BC interior during the first COVID lockdown. The song was released in 2021, amassing ¾ million streams and holding the #2 spot on SiriusXM Country for over a month. Never one to stay idle, Mack also used the lockdown time to write the hit song Fighting, which was released by award-winning artist Tyler Joe Miller in 2021, reaching #9 on the Billboard chart. Later in 2021, Mack will be releasing a brand new single titled Ain't Got You.
