Live at the BLAKE PAVILION 

  • Wylie & the Wild West have been performing their run-away horse style cowboy/folk/swing/yodeling to the world since 1989. They play everything from three chords and the truth to two chords and a pack of lies. A Montanan singer/songwriter, Wylie Gustafson has recorded 24 albums backed by over 3 decades of performing around the world.  He remains distinct in country music as one of the few authentic voices of the genre.  Wylie’s muse is the empty sprawl of his native Montana home where he crafts the words and music that reflect his life on the 4th generation family ranch.

    ​ Wylie & The Wild West features lead singer and guitarist Wylie Gustafson, Clayton Parsons on guitar, and Tim Lashley on drums. Stateside, they have performed at such prestigious venues as the National Folk Festival, MerleFest, the Bumbershoot Festival, The Stagecoach Festival, A Prairie Home Companion, The Conan O’Brien Show and over 50 guest appearances at the Grand Ole Opry.
