  • 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.
