Micheal Wesley Jeans was born in the heart of East Texas on January 13, 1981, only fifteen minutes from where legendary Freddie King was born. Wes grew up in a musically-enriched family and showed an interest in performing at a young age. But it wasn't until the age of fifteen that Wes chose his path. He found an old three-string guitar in his closet, and began learning the beginning riff of "Sunshine of Your Love". In 1996, after only playing nine months, Wes entered the International Jimi Hendrix Competition held in Austin, TX and placed an amazing second among fifteen hundred other young guitar players.

Today
Huey Lewis & the News Huey and the boys are making a mini-comeback with their song in Pineapple Express, but I'm guessing folks'll wanna hear "Power of Love," "Hip to be Square," or "I Want a New Drug" over any modern stuff. More info
