![]() Not really, I guess get there on time and play a good show. I know, we’re excited! Coming back! We played there on the Fourth of July and it was awesome. You guys are going to be in Baltimore this Sunday. Those are fun, but any of our songs I love to play. We do a couple covers that I really like to play like the Tom Petty song, “Listen to Her Heart”, and a Led Zeppelin song, “Hey Hey What Can I Do”. I just like the ones that people like the most. I wasn’t very familiar with their music, but it’s been fun watching their show every night.ĭo you have any personal favorite songs to play? We’ve only been with them for a couple of weeks, but they’re really cool guys. It was just a once in a lifetime opportunity for us. It was just amazing how nice and cool he was, him and his crew and his whole band was just really gracious. I think it was after the third show he started bringing us up there to sing gospel songs with him. We got to sing three or four songs with him almost every single show. That Willie Nelson tour was pretty amazing just to get to share the stage with a legend was a dream come true for all of us. What were the best moments from touring so far? Your album just dropped on August 13 th, but you guys have already toured with big names like Willie Nelson and Needtobreathe. I guess some are autobiographical and some are fictional, it just depends on the song and the process and kind of who brings it to the table and everything, so there’s no set way we do it or formula we have, we just kind of take them as they come and write them down and record ‘em. There’s three of us who write in the band, at least from this last record. How do you guys come up with your lyrics? Do you draw from your own lives or just write as it comes to you? Your lyrics range from upbeat (“The Ceiling”) to a little bit sad (“If You Don’t Love Me”). Tom Petty’s one, I think one that we all share is probably Neil Young. Are you guys influenced by any major musicians or anyone you listen to? I read a Rolling Stones article about you guys and they were comparing you a little bit to Tom Petty, and people love to make comparisons. Well, I wish we had some cool story to tell you, but we really just liked something cool with “feathers” in it, so we were playing around with the idea of something “feathers” and then we just kind of all decided that “wild feathers” sounded pretty cool so we went with that. ![]() Your band name, The Wild Feathers, is really unique. The Greyhound interviewed Taylor Burns of the group about the band’s music and upcoming show. Watch the video for their first single “The Ceiling” here: and listen to more songs here.

They have played shows with with Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Dawes to name a few. ![]() ![]() This Sunday November 10, Ottobar will welcome The Wild Feathers, a five-piece band from Nashville. ![]()
