Last month, Stephen Wilson Jr. took home his first ACM Award for Visual Media of the Year for his official video for ‘Cuckoo’ that he co-directed with his longtime creative collaborator Tim Cofield. Wilson Jr. released his ninth collaboration with Cofield earlier this year with the official video for ‘Gary’, which stars award-winning actor Gary Sinise (Forrest Gump, Apollo 13).
Wilson Jr. premiered ‘Gary’ late last year with an electrifying performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and also performed it on This Past Weekend with Theo Von and The Howard Stern Show.
This weekend, Wilson Jr. will perform at Railbird Music Festival before returning to Nashville on Sunday for a CMA Fest performance at Nissan Stadium. Throughout the rest of the year, he will tour the US and Europe on his headline Gary The Torch Tour that will culminate with two shows at The Truth in Nashville, TN on December 11 and 12. He will also tour as part of the Outlaw Music Festival, and will support Dave Matthews Band on September 4 at the Gorge Amphitheater and Brandi Carlile on September 11-13 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
