"If you’ve not experienced injustice, it’s my job as an artist to bring awareness to the fact that this injustice is around. And I want to encourage those who are strong enough to speak up to continue doing so.”

​- Wes Watkins

Watkins, featured in this week's Vagrom Eclectic, is playing at Ophelia's Electronic Soapbox Saturday, October 19th. ​

From http://theweswatkins.com

A big part of Watkins' repertoire was written while experiencing homelessness. Wes told Bolderbeat "and I want people to know that it was by no fault of mine that I ended up homeless.”

Watkins has been in several different bands including Air Dubai, Petals of Spain, and most recently, he toured with Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats. But he realized that having his own project was what he needed to do to fulfill his purpose as an artist.  

“By the time 2012 rolled around, I was just getting out of being homeless and had been in several different bands with some of my closest friends. But I kept quitting bands. That’s when a close friend of mine brought it to my attention that I needed to start my own. I started Other Black because of my love for soul and hip-hop.”
