Coming off the recent chart success of the first single “Country Girl” from the band’s debut record Only See…, the Scott Wiggins Band is set for another great run at the Texas singles charts. “Country Girl” reached the top thirty on the Texas Regional Radio Report and the Texas Music Chart.

It almost cracked the top 25 on the Texas Regional Radio Report. The second single is another great song from the record called “Mexico.” The recent success of the band’s debut CD is a stark contrast to how they got started with it.

The record was recorded in a home studio in Houston in 4 days. They did the music in 3 days and the vocals on the fourth. “It was kind of stressful, but fun at the same time”, said Wiggins. Wiggins and his band mates also self-produced the record with some help from Chris Rocha. They did send it away to have it mixed and mastered.

Like many recordings in Texas, talent has a way of transcending the budget expended on the project and Only See… is a reflection of that phenomenon. All of the songs on the CD were written by Wiggins except “Mexico” that is co-written with Jason Farjardo who is the band’s former lead guitar player. Even though the band is only on its second single from the debut record, and is touring like mad to support it, they are planning and working on the next project.

They have already had rehearsals and meetings with the rising production star, and Texas guitar standout front man, Keith Davis. Keith is working with the band to produce the next project with Austin sound engineer stand out Adam Odor on the controls in the studio.

They are planning on going in the studio in May of this year. It is a milestone of sorts for a band that has been together since forming the core in 2001 with Wiggins and drummer John Diaz. The Scott Wiggins Band is Scott Wiggins, John Diaz, Ryan Fedako, Ricky Diaz, and Austin Gillum. For more information check out www.scottwigginsband.com.
