FT. WORTH, TEXAS (FEBRUARY 26, 2009) – Sirius XM Satellite’s “Willie’s Place” and “Outlaw Country” DJ, Dallas Wayne, will release his new album, I’ll Take the Fifth, with Smith Entertainment, March 3rd, 2009. On his latest release, Dallas showcases some of his favorite original songs, both old and new, ranging from hard-core country ballads and swing, to swamp rock and up-tempo Texas dance tunes. A salute to the best of Americana music in all its different forms. With Wayne’s rich voice and roadhouse rhythms, I’ll Take the Fifth is a true testament to traditional honky-tonk music.
Dallas Wayne has traveled around the world as a songwriter, singer, actor and radio DJ. The Springfield, Missouri native began performing in 1975 and by the age of 18 had toured throughout the entire U.S. and Canada. He played with the honky-tonk supergroup, the TwangBangers. In 2005, Dallas embarked on a new facet of his career when he joined the family of on-air personalities in Outlaw Country on SIRIUS Satellite Radio. And in spring of 2006 he added a second radio show to his already busy schedule when he signed on as DJ and program/ music director at KHYI 95.3 FM in Dallas, Texas. In recognition of Dallas’ work at KHYI, the Academy of Western Artists presented him with a Will Rogers Award for Classic Country Major Market DJ of the Year for 2006.
