The Deeper Story...

WildCard is a brother and sister duo from Nashville, Tennessee, consisting of Samantha Madison and Stacey Leighton and their backing of some of the best musicians in the country.

Rooted in the hotbed of country music, their combined talents forge a performance that exhibits a broad spectrum of styles with conviction. Samantha's vocal prowess has brought her to the National Finals of the Colgate Country Showdown and won her a series of awards, as well as an array of full opening slots for top recording artists such as Travis Tritt, Mark Wills, Danielle Peck and Billy Ray Cyrus. Her brother, Stacey, shares the lead mic and plays both piano and guitar, and also completely produces their original material in his own studio. Together they share performances that rivet audiences across the nation.

Drummer Steve Hines provides a rock-solid foundation and comes from an exhaustive educational background from S.D.S.U., Music Tech in Minneapolis, and Musicians Institute in Hollywood. Being 6' 8", he also doubles as the band bodyguard. 6-String guru, Charlie Knobloch, employs a multitude of effects in his live performance, essentially making him a "lead chameleon" where he covers electric guitar, pedal steel, and fiddle instrumentation. Daniel George is their primarily self-taught bassist who grew up in Pittsburg, cheering on the Steelers and building his own instruments.

This collage of unique influences, coupled with the fact that they're all great friends (and/or related!), makes WildCard an exhilirating presence with a dynamic personal feel.

Brace yourself!
