NASHVILLE, Tenn. (March 25, 2022) – Wade Sapp releases his highly anticipated debut single, “Keep On Truckin'” written solely by Wade, this song has influence from the outlaw era of Country Music, made famous by the great Waylon Jennings, Bobby Bare, Willie Nelson and more.

“My mom’s second husband was a wiry truck driver from Ft. Pierce, Fla. I used to sit on his lap and steer the truck at the ripe age of five years old while listening to Jerry Reed’s ‘East Bound & Down’ and other trucker songs. I wanted to pay homage to that great era of Country Music and trucking culture with this song,” says Sapp.
Wade has been honing his craft deep in the Nashville Country scene for years. With a vast touring history alongside artists like Colter Wall and Elizabeth Cook, a slot on the Outlaw Country Cruise, future tour dates on the books, spins on SiriusXM Outlaw Country and his own OurVinyl Session, this is just the beginning for the singer and songwriter.

About Wade Sapp
Wade Sapp is making authentic country music for a new generation. While steeped in tradition, Sapp blends influences from Rock, Folk and Soul into his songwriting. At the age of 8, moving from the small South Florida town of Okeechobee to suburban Marietta, GA was a big change. But it was then Wade was exposed to more styles of music and eventually taught himself how to play guitar. As Wade got older, he started a band and began playing Bars and Clubs around Atlanta, eventually expanding to the Southeast. After 7 years of paying his dues in the region, Wade decided it was time to take the next step in his career and make the move to Nashville. Since relocating in 2016, Wade has established himself as one of Country Music’s most exciting promising stars. Over the past few years, he has played all over the U.S. opening for Colter Wall as well as perfecting his show on headliner dates. Now at long last, Wade is gearing up to release his debut album Radio Check in 2022!
