Colter Wall

HISTORY WITH BILLY BOB’S: 

ABOUT COLTER WALL: 

Western Canadian songwriter, Colter Wall, is a weathered baritone that spins narratives on the stage. He sings traditional known to most, historic reverie, and poignant originals, raising both goosebumps and beers throughout the evening. It’s a nostalgic atmosphere and a simple yet colorful experience.

Wall recorded a seven-song EP, Imaginary Appalachia, with Jason Plumb as producer in 2015 at Studio One in Regina, Saskatchewan. He collaborated on the EP with other artists from Regina such as Belle Plaine and The Dead South. He described his music as a blend of blues, folk and Americana. The EP was released on March 9, 2015, and “The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie” was released as his first single. His music gained more attention in late 2015 when professional wrestler Brock Lesnar mentioned him as a favorite artist during an interview with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. Songs from the album were featured in the television show Dog the Bounty Hunter, and the films Hell or High Water and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. The track used in the films, “Sleeping on the Blacktop”, gained more than a million streams on Spotify.

Three of Wall’s songs are featured in the fourth season of the Paramount series Yellowstone, including a rendition of Rex Allen‘s 1951 classic “Cowpoke”, plus Wall’s own “Plain to See Plainsman” and “Sleeping on the Blacktop”.
