Wayne Brewer Biography
Gary “Wayne” Brewer Jr. (called Wayne Brewer by his family and friends) is part of the 6th generation of Brewers. Wayne was born on February 8, 1995, making him 26 years old today; and he has been enjoying music all his life. His dad, Gary Brewer (leader and founder of Bluegrass group Gary Brewer and the Kentucky Ramblers), brought Wayne into the studio with him to record on one of his CDs singing “Y’all Come” (alongside Gary Brewer and Finley J. Brewer [Wayne’s Grandpa]). Starting his career at the young age of 18 months old, Wayne was awarded with the honor of “The Youngest Recording Artist” in the Guinness Book of World Records! To most people, one World Record is a major accomplishment, but Wayne Brewer was awarded with TWO in his childhood. In addition to being the “Youngest Recording Artist”, Wayne was given the award as the “Youngest Artist to perform on The Grand Ole Opry Stage”!
Ever since Wayne received his 2 World Records, he has been in love with music. He now plays upright bass with Gary Brewer and the Kentucky Ramblers, and has since he was 14 years old. Six years ago, he decided to teach himself how to play fiddle. He got his desire to do so from hearing his Great Grandpa’s albums. Wayne wanted to carry on the style of fiddle his Great Grandpa played, and that’s called Old Time. After practicing and learning his music on the fiddle, Wayne started playing fiddle tunes on stage and featuring his fiddle in Gary Brewer’s songs. A couple years later, Wayne decided to record his debut Fiddle album.
