  • Artist Name: Chuck Wimer
  • Hometown: Lytle, TX

What project(s) are you currently working on?

 Finishing an album in studio while releasing each of the 12 songs once a month. This is a very exciting project!

What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?

 I was inspired at 16, by my father who is also a songwriter. I didn’t decide to stand on stages and pursue the life of an artist until I was 42. My wife recommended that I give it a shot and see if it was what I wanted to do. She didn’t want me to resent myself for never trying.

If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?

I would probably be doing some random desk job punching in numbers and waiting for the clock to hit 5pm. Or possibly training dogs again.

What is your favorite downtime activity?

 In my downtime, I enjoy spending time with the family and traveling around Texas.

Who is your biggest celebrity crush?

The Chicago Bears
