Wayne Longtin Sr. has been around the music business for 40 years. 30 of those years as a bass guitarist with road bands traveling across the country. Considering himself retired, he has given that up and is releasing his first CD on his own label, "Never Too Late Records" The CD "Take Away the Music" will available at CD Baby in February.
Band/artist history
How many times have songs been written about the second time around? I blew my first major chance at a recording career with drugs. Ended up homeless when I quit music. This time around? There'll be no more mistakes. One of my goals is to help the younger artists coming up. Advice? Keep the music a business!
Have you performed in front of an audience?
My current venues are coffehouse concerts since it's wintertime in Minnesota. I have concerts booked during the summer months at fairs and festivals and still travel. I love the road even though I'll be 62 years old in March. My favorite venues are nursing homes and Senior centers. To see somebody in a wheelchair that can hardly hold their head up is depressing but when you see a foot tapping to the music, or even a finger, that's priceless!
Your musical influences
I grew up in northern Minnesota listening to radio stations in Memphis, Chicago, etc. on an old RCA radio. I have a background in Blues,Jazz, R&B and, of course Country msuic. Rockabilly is what I grew up on. My heroes are anybody making good music no matter what the genre.
Anything else?
For an old guy to have a website is amazing but I do! My first CD as a singer/songwriter is amazing to me. "Two months ago I couldn't even spell songwriter & now I are one!) Go to www.waynelongtin.com and sign the guestbook. Then join me in my journey as we attack the music world with a new fervor!
