Canadian country performer Bobby Wills had an interest in music while he was growing up, but his adoptive family wasn’t artistically inclined, even if his dad was a big country music fan. After some success at an open mic night as a teenager and discovering that his biological family had a number of musicians in it, Wills focused on a career in music. He spent his early 20s between his native Calgary and Nashville where he made connections that helped shape his first album, 2010’s Man with No Past. He worked the record for two years, landing a minor country hit with “Little More Time” in 2011. His 2012 follow-up, If It Was That Easy, proved to be his breakthrough spinning off two top 10 country hits (“Show Some Respect” and “Somebody Will”). His rock-tinged sound, rooted in traditional country, crossed over to the Canadian pop charts with 2014’s “Crazy Enough” and “Never Didn’t Love You”, both top 20 country tunes that climbed into the 70s of the regular pop chart. He snagged more top 10 country hits in each of the next two years. In 2020 he released the single “Wash My Truck”, which landed him back on the Canadian country charts for the fist time since 2017.
