Hello. Wade Hunt Williams here. Are you tired of hiring vocalist/musicians to entertain your event only to find out they can neither sing or entertain? You wont have that problem with me. I am as comfortable in front of ten as I am ten thousand. I will bring my years of training and touring to bear to your small private event or large outdoor festival!
Hours of classic Rock/Country covers OR country/Americana themed originals that tell rich stories of love and life.
Performer called at 10:45 the night before my event and wanted to cancel. Performer showed up one hour late for our contracted time.
I have attempted to contact GigSalad with no luck yet!
Response from Wade Hunt Williams:
I was out of town attending a funeral. I drove 16 hours straight to make the gig. How dare you give me this kind of review?
I have booked Wade monthly at Southereaze bar and grill. He is an amazing musician. His playlist is amazing . He is an absolute entertainer. Customers love him. He is also a great person, very ethical, kind and very charismatic
Response from Wade Hunt Williams:
Thank you so much. I am blessed to bring music and entertainment to your venue always. So good to know you and to bring entertainment to you and your customers.

If I am playing "solo" I will sing and play popular and classic Country/Southern Rock/Rock to backing tracks SO....it sounds like a full band but only a fraction of the price.
I will play 40-45 minutes at a time with 15-20 minute breaks in between. I can provide music in between sets saving the client money on a DJ as well. You just got to let me know in advance those songs that you know your crowd wants to hear or you can trust me to feel the crowd and cater to their needs.
“Faith, Family and Country” are the themes that resonate in Wade Hunt Williams Soulful Country music.
Williams’s mission is to move you to sing, dance, laugh, or even cry when you hear his music. Wade has come to the realization that the only real reason to be on this planet is to be good to each other and bring others to know God. That may sound corny and naïve but coming from someone like Williams, who has been through hell and lives to tell his story…it’s an epiphany.
Wade was a gypsy since birth it seems. He lived all over the southeast United States when growing up. Passed between divorced parents every other year. Texas, Tennessee, and even Florida were all called home even before his 14th birthday. Hearing classic George Jones from his Dad and the current radio rock hits while with his Mom truly shaped his duality of music styles.
He moved to Los Angeles when he was barley 18 and there began a whirlwind of triumphs, stumbles and addictions. Years he spent in the “City of Angels” only to finally question if the “angels” were from above…or below.
Wade came to know Jesus in 2008 in his Los Angles apartment during a life long struggle with drugs and alcohol. His conversion was intense and dramatic. He immediately began telling the world about this loving and powerful God he had found through his music and movies. And then in 2016 Williams' recent near-death experience with a ruptured brain aneurysm brought him even closer to God's path and amazing ways.
Just ask him, he'll tell you about the love that swept over his soul as he left his body and the miracles that happened that has him walking and talking today.
Here are some things others have said about him:
“As a musician/producer in Nashville, it's always a joy to work with people who really believe in what they are doing. Wade Williams is on the upside of that dynamic. His songs are thoughtful, crafted, and unique. Vocally, he is ever so convincing. it's nice to see someone care about what he is doing. Add to all of that, a hell of a nice, family guy, and you've got quite the package.” - David Roe Rorick (Bass player for Johnny Cash, Dwight Yokum, Kris Kristofferson, John Mellencamp)
“No telling where this guy will be in a year” - Adam Gaynor (Matchbox Twenty)
“ Wow! The power and passion of your voice is astounding” – Mathew West
“Powerful” – Gilby Clarke (Guns and Roses)
“Rockstar, Wade is the hardest working musician I have ever known” – Jeff Abercrombie (Bass player for Fuel)
I will arrive and set up within 30-60 minutes. I require only a live outlet and I can take care of sound and lighting (if requested) and I will be comfortable on a stage or in a dance floor corner. Whatever works best for the client.
