Wyatt Flores

And so I did this and I just got this rush of like, oh my God, people are listening when I sing, even if it's not my song.

So when I went to college and I did all the songwriting showcases and people were listening and I did, you know, I opened for Wyatt Flores, that was insane.

He asked me to open for him in St. Louis.

And I was like, this is crazy.

I love that, though.

I literally just posted a video about, we got to go to a Wyatt Flores show.

Oh, he's cool, man.

He's great.

We were at Boise, Oklahoma, and Kendall and I did the pit this year.

So we were up front all day long, Wyatt Flores.

Turnpike comes out, and he's playing Heaven Passing Through, and he says, you know, throw your flashlight up.

I want to see him.

sometimes even canes i get like too many people in here oh dude like yeah like i was trying to stick to not the big stadiums as little as possible

As much as we talk about how we love Kane's, Hangover Ball last year was a pure example of how people need to learn what they're into and not just show up because of names.

I get that you're seeing Evan Felker, BJ Barham, Wyatt Flores, and Cody Candidate on the same bill, but they're not bringing their bands out there with them.

They're coming out there to have an acoustic song swap where they're going to sit around, they're going to tell stories, they're going to swap songs.

But I got to, you know, she got to meet Willie that night and um so those were like those are my willy experiences at the start of it and then and then i got to do luck reunion somewhere in that they give you the if you play luck you get like a luck ring it's a silver ring that's like cool yeah it's like they custom make the rings for all the artists that play it's kind of like a uh i don't know it's like a rite of passage in a way i don't know it's cool like seeing other musicians with a luck ring on yeah it's it's like a part of the head yeah part of the willie family you've been there

and you've gotten to go out with with willie dwight yokum ryan bingham charlie crockett our good friend wyatt flores and the 49 guys man talk about your friendship with a guy like wyatt flores because he kind of came up around the same time that you did yeah coming out of the pandemic he was out of oklahoma you were out of amma

Yeah, dude, I played my first ever headliner in Nashville at the basement, OG basement, and the show sold out, you know, so it's really tight inside.

And after the show, I was going to go meet fans, but there's like nowhere to meet because there's no room.

Cheers.

I'm Ginny Longdon here at the Long Road Festival talking to a country music band who have been opening for acts like Wyatt Flores, 49 Winchester and Morgan Wallen.

Jason Scott on the Hi-Heat.

Welcome.

I think High Country is a good label.

It doesn't necessarily tell you anything, but it's our brand.

You've opened for Wyatt Flores, 49, Winchester.

You played some opening slots for Morgan Wallen's Still the Problem tour.

But see, here's the thing.

I love Wyatt Flores so much, but I would say that as much as I love his music, he's not the most influential into what I produce my artistry as.

When I sit down to write poems,

it's 100% Lana Del Rey.

Exactly.

Because ask me when I'm in a more...

I guess it depends how I'm feeling, because if I'm very sad, it will be more Wyatt Flores influenced when I write.

Yeah,

You know, what's got her pretty good is she's dating a big-time country singer.

Wyatt Flores,

is it?

No one's ever

heard of Wyatt Flores.

He's pretty big in the country scene.

They started dating, and I think they're already, like, talking about engagement.

Let's talk about Nothing Better To Do.

That's with Wyatt Flores.

Yes.

How did you guys meet and get together on this song?

wrong, yeah.

Wyatt Flores was really good.

I'm surprised how much I enjoyed Wyatt Flores.

He was really good.

I'm like, I like Wyatt Flores, but he's not someone that's a regular rotation for me.

But I'm like, I really like Wyatt Flores live.

He was really good.

He was really good.
