Wheeler Walker Jr. Seattle Concert reviews

Brad Paisley is vastly under-rated
Wheeler Walker Jr. filled the shoes of Kenny Chesney as the headliner at the 2026 NE Country Music Fest. Let me say Wheeler Walker Jr. rose to the challenge and more. His guitar playing was outstanding, both on the electric and acoustic guitar. He played songs that were deeply entrenched in the country vein, as well as songs that would only be considered country because he was wearing a cowboy hat. His songs are both touching and humorous. He played for about 2 hours straight without a break. Throughout the show, he played all the hits, but spaced them beautifully through the night.
