Anthony Anderson, aka WESLEY, is an electro-pop artist from LA. Originally from Minnesota, he moved to Los Angeles in 2014 to develop his musical style and songwriting. After years of juggling a 9-5 job with his passion for music, WESLEY realized the corporate life wasn’t going to help him fulfill his creative side. He then decided to focus solely on his music.
WESLEY grew up listening to everything from Earth, Wind & Fire, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, and vintage rock’n’roll. He was inspired to create music covering a variety of different genres. WESLEY’s music explores explosive 808’s and vibrant synths, hoping to bring back 90’s pop vocals by blending them with new trap pop and future bass style beats. His songs are heavily driven by the inspiration of movement.
WESLEY states, “I’ve always been someone who likes to move around and explore. I once had an acting coach tell me that I needed to make my car a mobile meditation center, so I just ‘meditated’ on good music and realized that some songs on a road brought out certain feelings that you can’t get anywhere else”.
With the goal to encourage others to take a chance WESLEY advocates, “You really never know what will come of it. I think it’s a testament to words in the songs, the people I’ve been able to work with and meet that if you just take a chance you might surprise yourself”.
Phantom Feeling is WESLEY’s bold new single, which was just released today! Give it a listen below.
