Jon Wolfe w/ Anderson Daniels at Turf Club
The best introduction to Jon Wolfe is the basic yet not so simple fact that he’s a country singer and songwriter. Country music, as it was, is and always should be, with boots firmly standing on the bedrock of tradition and an eye focused on taking it into the future. And that, as any fan of true country knows, is no simple proposition.
Hence the other best introduction to Jon Wolfe is to hear him sing and share the stories in the songs he performs and writes. And to learn his life story — from small town Oklahoma to the bustling big city commodities trading floor to the dance halls and honky-tonks of Texas and Oklahoma to Music Row, to give the highlights — and witness his faith in the power of music and determination to touch the hearts of others with something that means so much to him.
It’s world-class country music from the American heartland, informed by the great singers that inspired Wolfe — like George Strait, Garth Brooks (a fellow Okie), Clint Black, Merle Haggard, Alan Jackson, and Dwight Yoakam, to name a few — yet fired by his own contemporary energy and vision.
Anderson Daniels has a drive to be a voice in Country Music that serves as the pioneer for his early career success. At 22, he stepped into Sound Stage Studios on Music Row to record his first studio project with Century Music Group in Nashville, TN. Upon the independent release in May of 2018, Anderson's debut EP Heartland peaked at #18 on the iTunes Country Charts and continues to connect with country music fans across the nation. Anderson was awarded New Artist of the Year at the 2019 Midwest Country Music Association Awards and summed up his acceptance speech with a big statement - "We're just getting warmed up." As a Champlin, MN native, Anderson continues to play shows and tour across the heartland of this country.
