    Jul 17 2025

    Anthony Wayne Vibe returns to the studio to perform some new tunes and talks about his new album that is coming up, and talks a little about the whole process, we talk about the current status of the AVIBE Festival & its future.

    Anthony Wayne is a musician and songwriter from Southwest Virginia and Northeast Tennessee. A beautiful area, ripe with mountainous forests and skies for days, where many call Home. Where Anthony has created his brand of genreless Vibe. Taking time to create this brand of Vibe he wanted, had been kicking around, writing and touring since 1995, from Virginia to Nashville to Texas and coast to coast and back. It is often said that a songwriter or song can be genre defining or to be easily compared to or paralleled with an artist or band currently on a certain chart. Anthony Wayne did not set out to be genreless but with so many influences and a vast creative pallet, he has given his music a challenging classification and ultimately, Freedom. Influences ranging from Singer Songwriter, Metal, Punk, Percussion, Poetry, Theater and most places in between, allow him the diversity. Unable to prevent all artistic outlets to spoil his Vibe, Anthony Wayne is equal parts Indie, Americana, Jam, Rock, and Progressive. That is just the start of what might be. A genreless, free spirited collected compass, with so many points North that, Home is all around him and wherever he goes. Utilizing harmonies, guitars, samples, drums, percussion, rhythm and groove; Anthony Wayne is allowing his hands and heart to deliver a unique Vibe unlike anything seen before. With a vibrant and raucous stage delivery, Anthony Wayne is Live and Ready. This year will see the release of recorded material that has been waiting for the right moment to see the light. To celebrate, Anthony Wayne is peeling back the layers of sound to reveal the basics. A guy and a guitar and tons of new material.
