As both an instrumentalist and songwriter, Wise is starting to make his name known.  Last year he opened for one of America’s most iconic bands, The Eagles, at a sold out Beacon Theatre on November 15th, an event featured in national news by the Associated Press, the New York Times, and the Washington Post.  Wise released his debut EP Don’t Walk Away on October 20th of last year and spent the summer putting together his full-length debut entitled When Day Breaks, out this past November.  Wise held his album release party at a packed Bitter End, and is getting his name out there one show at a time!
