Wylie weaves the essence of a better place into the melodies and grooves with this collection of gems mined from the Treasure State. Sky Tones is the perfect soundtrack for any kind of Montana journey you plan on taking: physical or metaphysical, car or horseback, whether you are counting on loneliness or casting for love! --Slim Chance- The Hi-Line RamblerAs I mature as a songwriter I begin to realize that the more I write, the more focused my songs have become to a sense of place . That place is Montana. My native land. My querencia . My sacred altar. I am a simple cow-horse man from the Big Sky Country. I have chosen to celebrate my life by picking up a guitar and singing about this way of life. Being a Western singer in the 21st Century is not an easy way to make a living... but oh, so fulfilling! The paucity and poverty of being a minstrel doesn t seem so bad when you get to sing about the beauty of such a stunning land and the charm of her characters.  The mysterious and awesome power of music is nothing new. King David piqued God s interest by strumming a few righteous chords on a harp several thousand years ago. Good music always has found a way to into the hearts and souls of those who listen. For me, there is no better inspiration to celebrate the wide open spaces than by being a songwriter from Montana. To sing about another place seems almost unfaithful. And although her depth and beauty are bottomless and complex, I will continue to sing about her until my voice is silent. --Wylie - Wylie & the Wild West
