Singer, songwriter, and musician Waylon Wyatt has teamed up with Bayker Blakenship to share their new song “Jailbreak” via Music Soup/Darkroom Records. The two rising stars blend their dynamic vocals with classic Americana and Country elements, demonstrating Wyatt and Blankenship’s ability to make modern singer-songwriter music their own. Through the track, the duo positions themselves as forces to watch in this new generation of Country music, continuing to set new standards and solidify themselves as leading rising voices of the genre.
“Jailbreak” follows on the heels of Wyatt’s recently released debut EP, “Til The Sun Goes Down”, a project that he solely produced and wrote. Since its release, “Til The Sun Goes Down” has amassed over 55M global streams to date and continues to grow.
Just seventeen years old and hailing from the small town of Hackett, Arkansas, Wyatt embarked on his musical journey at the age of fifteen, writing music in his childhood home. Balancing his passion with long summer days working construction with his father, Wyatt began crafting his own songs and refining them in his parents’ rec room, resulting in him becoming the first Country/Americana artist signed to Darkroom Records. Wyatt joins the label’s impressive roster of Billie Eilish, D4vd, John Summit, and many more.
With no signs of slowing down, Wyatt recently wrapped up his supporting role opening for Dwight Yoakam on his “The Cosmic Roundup & Rodeo Tour,” and will continue to perform his own slew of headlining shows and at festivals including Americana Fest. He was also announced today as part of the bill for next year’s incredible Stagecoach Festival.
