Wilson’s drumming style is aggressive and youthful, with smashing backbeats and fiery cymbal punctuation. Wilson began playing as a session drummer in the early 1990s. One of the first albums to feature his drumming was Brooks and Dunn’s debut “Brand New Man”. Other songs featuring Wilson on drums include Tim McGraw’s “Indian Outlaw”, John Michael Montgomery’s “I Swear”, Tracy Lawrence’s “Time Marches On”, and Faith Hill’s “This Kiss”. He was named Drummer of the Year by the Academy of Country Music in 2002 and 2004.All in all, Wilson has played drums on countless gold and platinum records and over 118 #1 hits!
Wilson is also a songwriter, having written “There Goes My Heart Again” by Holly Dunn, “New Day To Light Up An Old Flame”, “Startin’ Over Blues”, “Texas Size Heartache” and "This Pretender" by Joe Diffie; “I’ll Go Crazy” by Andy Griggs, “Honky Tonk Truth” by Brooks & Dunn; “Love You Out Loud” by Rascal Flatts, and “All My Friends Say” by Luke Bryan. Much like his contemporary Eddie Bayers, Wilson’s kindness and generosity helped the host of this podcast get a few early breaks in Nashville.
