Wylie Gustafson is an American Original. The gifted singer, songwriter, rancher, horseman, and the world-famous Yahoo!® yodeler leads the musical outfit known as Wylie & the Wild West. As one music writer sums it up: “Forget everything you hate about modern country, this guy is all old school cool without being a tired period piece.”

Wylie is a real life cowboy born into a 4th generation ranching family on the empty sprawl of Northern Montana. He celebrates his unique rural perspective as a prolific singer/songwriter with over twenty albums to his credit. Whether playing for a crowd of 50 or 5,000, Wylie’s goal is always the same: “To win a crowd and not be boring!”

If you were a part of the millions of viewers who watched the 2014 Superbowl commercial “God made a Farmer” by Dodge Trucks you’ll see Wylie with his hard working family doing what they do every day to keep food on America’s tables. His deep rooted Western lifestyle remains the backbone of his art.
