"The TAIT Radio Program is very proud to present Part One of a 2-part special on Singer, Songwriter, Guitarist, Recording Artist and sometime actor Wesley Cook. What is unique about Wesley Cook is his profoundly deep and well-constructed lyrics. The variety of music he composes is more diverse than most artists you will ever encounter. Growing up in foreign countries, he captured many influences from around the world. But you will find some of his songs to be folk, some blues, some rock, and a healthy dose of beautiful ballads. His depth of thinking and writing, as well as ambition leaves some a bit surprised when they find out how young he is. Watch out for Wesley- he's going to be big.
