Bio
“The Past, Present, and Future of Country Music”
“To listen to Dwain Messer is to hear the past, present, and future of country music wrapped up in one extraordinary expressive voice. I believe in this guy. When you hear him, you will too. Kentucky strikes again.”
- - Robert K. Oermann
“A natural hillbilly heart singer.”
(Music Row Magazine Oct. 2003) (Robert K. Oermann journalist)
A native of Kentucky, Dwain Messer has had a life long passion for music. He started studying music in grade school and then actively pursued music while in high school by playing with various bluegrass and country bands. He also performed gospel music in a group with his mother, father, and other family members. But, he always nourished a real love for country music, and after graduating from Morehead State University, he formed his own band and began performing his own written music throughout the tri-state area.
During the past seven years, Dwain has performed in front of audiences as large as 30,000 people while opening for a number of nationally known country acts, including Lee Ann Womack, Kenny Chesney, Terri Clark, Clay Walker, Bryan White, Ricky Van Shelton, T Graham Brown, Gene Watson, Exile and others. Along the way his fan base has grown dramatically and internationally. His fan base stretches from Mexico to Illinois to Beijing, with his music getting airplay in Europe. In May of 2006, the single release “Surrender” from his self titled Debut CD, hit number 36 on the top 40 throughout all of Europe on the European Country Music Association Charts. And in January of 2006, he also scored a number one hit, (“The Picture in the Mirror”) from that same CD, in the country of Austria. He continues to write his own songs, and co writes, and also records demos for producers in Nashville, and has performed across the Southern United States.
Influenced by artists such as Vince Gill, Merle Haggard, Ricky Skaggs, Keith Whitley, and the Beatles. Dwain was one of only eight contestants in America to be selected for The Family Channels Wild Wild West and Atlantic Records search for new talent.
DWAIN’S PERSONAL COMMENT
“This has become a journey that has been fun and memorable and I’m still trekking on and meeting many wonderful people, songwriters, artists, and the people from the Nashville community who work so hard in this business. Along the way I’m happy to say I’ve developed some great friends who’ve also become fans of my music. I believe this journey will continue to advance my music and my dreams into reality.”
