October 2, 2019

Acoustic singer/songwriter Cory Wells released a brand-new song today. ‘Wildfire’ is taken from his upcoming full-length debut album ‘The Way We Are’, which will be released through Pure Noise Records on November 15th. ‘Four years in the making and I cannot be more proud of this collection of songs” shares Wells. “It portrays sadness, anger, despair, happiness, uncertainty, regret, and so much more.  It’s my life. It’s your life. It’s about what it’s like to be human.  Without the bad, the good would mean nothing. It would just be normal. I hope people can appreciate the emotions put into this record as well as the various feels and styles it represents. It’s the way we are”. On “Wildfire” he adds: “This topic a first for me to write about. I didn’t know that I’d ever known true hatred for someone until the events of this song. It feels amazing to let out so much anger in a healthy way. It feels like letting go”. Track List: 1. Distant 2. Keiko 3. Wildfire 4. Harbor 5. [Read More]
