Wes Tirey Returns

Wes Tirey comes back to the Petal Motel podcast [virtual] studio for our first podcast episode since 2021.

We talk about his 2019 album No Winners in the Blues which was just re-issued on wax on Full Spectrum Records. Wes is a unique songwriter and this album is especially unique as a departure from his usual literary style of writing character songs. No Winners is intensely personal, stark, and as textural as the pairing of Wes’s gorgeous acoustic plucking alongside Shane Parish’s electric stylings, there is a quiet, evocative emptiness in this album, creating an empathetic listening experience. The re-issue is mastered by Andrew Weathers and features new artwork by the same.

Have a listen and get the vinyl on Bandcamp!

Apologies for audio issues, it’s been so long that my computer stopped recognizing my microphone.
