There are surprises in this life, unpredictable moments where something catches fire, has a life beyond what you expect. Will Hoge holds the number three most viewed video on Music Fog with the song "Even If It Breaks Your Heart." I for one, didn't see that coming, although he is totally worthy of it! BTW, James McMurtry is number one with "Choctaw Bingo," but I expected that, hell, we ALL expected that. Number two is Eilen Jewell's "Sea of Tears." We filmed Will in a back green room at The 8X10 in Baltimore, and it was one of those trips where the Music Foggers showed up, and proceeded to be blown away. They walked out saying Will could be the new Springsteen. And yes, he could! He is everyday, he is eternal, he rocks.
Will has a new EP, at last! This comes off the heels of the horrible accident he suffered in Nashville, being knocked off his scooter, and months of healing and rehab were necessary. The album he was working on at the time came out as The Wreckage. We bring you his brand new video for “Favorite Waste of Time” to celebrate the release of his acoustic EP The Living Room Sessions, a six-song mini-album recorded in just two days in his living room. It features stripped-down versions of essential songs, including "Favorite Waste of Time" which was originally on his studio album The Wreckage. This video spotlights that electric version, and is included as a bonus on the digital download version of the EP.
Will is forever on the road, and you can catch up with him somewhere soon, just check his website for all the dates. Or visit his Facebook page and enter the "Favorite Waste of Time Contest," through November 15th, for a chance to have Will and the band come to your home and waste time with you! Oh yeah, and play this loud!
