Music by: WILD HORSES
Week 6 has been announced! The band is Wild Horses, a Roots Folk-Rock, Western, Americana group. Frontman and lead songwriter, Jed LaPlant, comes from a family deeply tied into the Minnesota bluegrass community, where storytelling is central to a song. He draws on that background with lyrics that are personal and at times intimate. That intimacy translates to the audience in live shows and is balanced with electrifying energy. This live show is gonna be a foot stompin’ and hands wavin’ kind of time!
