Name: Wess Floyd
Hometown: Dothan, Alabama

Sounds Like: Southern rock with a perfect blend of melodies. Turn up your bass to get the full effect of electric guitars, harmonicas, and drums, which are accompanied by gritty vocals. Wess now calls Nashville home, but his roots are in southern Alabama.

If You Like: Drive-By Truckers, Band of Horses

Download: “Mermaid Avenue Rendezvous” if you’re in the mood for an easy-listening tune, and choose “Williamsburg Nights” for a more upbeat tempo full of rock ‘n roll.
