Queer Country Showcase: Ever More Nest + Wiley Gaby

Queer Country Showcase: Ever More Nest + Wiley Gaby

Wiley Gaby and Ever More Nest Bring Heart and New Songs to Tallahassee — May 8 at House of Music
TALLAHASSEE, FL — On Wednesday, May 8, two rising Americana songwriters with deep Southern roots — Wiley Gaby and Ever More Nest — will take the stage at House of Music in Tallahassee for a night of new music, pedal steel, and lived-in stories.

Brooklyn-based, Wakulla-raised, and a graduate of Florida State University, Gaby is debuting a full set of brand-new songs for his hometown crowd, joined by Gainesville’s Sam Holcomb on pedal steel. Wiley is fresh from a four-day session at Dial Back Sound in Mississippi, the studio and label run by Matt Patton (Drive-By Truckers). Gaby’s next project — a new solo debut EP this fall, followed by a full LP on vinyl in early 2026 — will be his first with the label.

Sharing the bill is New Orlean’s Ever More Nest, the moniker of New Orleans songwriter Kelcy Wilburn, whose music carries echoes of the Mississippi River, gospel halls, and roadside dives. Ever More Nest’s debut album, The Place That You Call Home (2018) garnered praise from local, national, and international media. The album was nominated for Best Alt-Country Album in the 2019 Independent Music Awards and named to Offbeat Magazine's list of Top 50 Albums of 2018.

Out Here Now, the follow-up to Ever More Nest's lauded debut, was released on August 19, 2022 with its single “What's Gone Is Gone” reaching #1 on the Roots Music Radio Contemporary Folk Songs Chart.

This will be Wiley’s final North Florida show until fall. Tickets are 30% off now, or full price at door.
