THE ARTIST
Wayne Bedecki is a singer/songwriter from Glace Bay, Nova Scotia on Cape Breton Island who now resides in Halifax. Named CBMIC Top Three Emerging Artist in 2018. His songwriting ability shows hints of cleverness as of Jason Isbell and is clear in his music that he is locally inspired by Matt Mays, Carlton Stone and Dave Sampson. Wayne creates an edgy alternative folk sound that forces the audience to feel each lyric. He has paved his way by catching fans attention from his live performance. His success has been built from word of mouth and earning the attention of established musicians with authenticity and drive. ’Take Me Home ‘ will be released March 11th 2022, the first single for his debut album ‘ Running So Long ‘ coming in the summer of 2022.
Tip of the Hat to The Turnbull Brothers for this thoughtful gesture. Good on you, fellas. Please support Christmas Daddies people, they do important work!
