NASHVILLE, Tenn. (October 09, 2024) – Nashville recording artist and neo-traditional country singer-songwriter Whey Jennings recently wrapped up his tour participation in the 2024 Mobilize Recovery Across America bus tour. Organized by 501(c)(3) non-profit organization Mobilize Recovery, the bus tour brings together a diverse cross-sector cohort of advocates, allies, and stakeholders to drive measurable, sustainable, and action-oriented solutions that create resilient communities of recovery. 

Jennings spoke to the event’s participants in Las Vegas on September 24 and Richmond, Virginia on October 08, sharing his own story of addiction and how he found his way to recovery. He also performed his song “Sleeves,” which he co-wrote with fellow recovery advocate and songwriter Wes Shipp. His song and story of how he found his way to recovery was profiled in a recent exclusive with Fox News.

Commemorating National Recovery Month in September, Jennings launched a 21 day “Break The Cycle” social media awareness campaign across his FaceBook, Instagram and TikTok channels, where he personally addressed some of the common themes and topics faced by addicts trying to find their way to recovery. 

“Sadly, drug addiction has been a huge part of my life,” Jennings said. “This song and music video is one step towards making a difference in the lives of not only addicts, but also the ones who hold them near and dear to their hearts. I apologize if this video has been hard to watch, but in order to address the problem, you have to face it head-on.”

About Whey Jennings:
Country singer-songwriter Whey Jennings was born into one of country music’s most iconic family names, first emerging in 2012 as another naturally gifted singer from the Jennings tribe. With large boots to fill, the young Nashville recording artist and singer-songwriter for Dirt Rock Empire, with a booming baritone voice as big as Texas, finds himself with a few expectations to live up to. Seeking to establish his own musical legacy as one of the few remaining torch-bearing country traditionalists out there, Whey can instantly take his fans back to a time and sound his Grandfather Waylon and Grandmother Jessi gave birth to in the 70’s, even with his own songs.

With three studio recorded EP releases under his belt, 2020’s Gypsy Soul, 2022’s If It Wasn’t for The Sinnin’, and 2023’s Just Before The Dawn, Jennings is now preparing for his magnum opus of songs, his first full length album, the highly anticipated Jekyll & Hyde, due out August 23, 2024. Many of Whey’s songs reveal stories of how he has come to terms with a checkered past of too much partying, led by a drug-fueled lifestyle, but knowing he needed to make a change. Musical stories about struggles, addiction, finding sobriety, and redemption through faith in God, family and his friends. Interjecting his own modern-day approach to songwriting and storytelling, while remaining a little rough around the edges, Whey’s unpolished grit and honest demeanor defines his sound, with musical roots that run as deep as his Jennings family name would imply.
