I was fortunate enough to have a quality sit down with the very talented Cory Wells ahead of his intimate gig at St Pancras Old Church where he performed flawless renditions of his songs off his debut album “The Way We Are”.
In between bibles, candle sticks and a Holy Water tap, Cory and I discuss the making of his record, in particular “Keiko” (definitely not a reference to “Free Willy”), “Harbor” (probably one of the most honest and vulnerable moments I’ve shared with an artist while doing an interview) and “Wildfire” – the video of which featured Pandora, a 10-year old snake. (Snake years or human years, you decide)
Good news for us Europeans – Cory hints he will be back before the end of a year, potentially with his full band. Until then, enjoy The Way We Are and try to catch him live before you cry about how his shows sell out before you got a ticket
