Two of the best and most unique country artists in the area will be gracing the stage at Bigs Bar for a Country Music Showcase this weekend.

If you like original and authentic country music, you won't want to miss this show.

Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with both Cory and Collin about the upcoming show, their writing style, and how the two met. Take a listen below.

Raised in rural Iowa, Cory Waller perfectly blends country music with gritty southern rock and has one of the best bands in the business. When you attend a Cory Waller & The Wicked Things Show, you know it's going to be a fun night.

In the interview below, Cory talks about his band, what to expect at one of their shows, and the origins of the song "Converse Shoes".

Check out the clip below of Cory Waller & The Wicked Things performing a cover of Chris Stapleton's "Arkansas" at the Sac County Fair a few years back.

I've had the pleasure of speaking to Collin several times over the years. He's a softspoken guy, but don't let that fool ya, his music packs a serious punch. Not only is Colin an extremely talented musician, but he's also a genuinely good guy, and that comes through when you have conversation with him. Take a listen to my sit-down interview with Collin in the clip below, where he discusses his musical upbringing and catchy single "Whydontcha".

Here's another one of Collin's songs called "Good Life", all about enjoying the best things in life and letting the small stuff go.

In this clip, Cory and Collin talk about how they met and what fans can expect to see at this weekend's show at Bigs.

On second thought let's talk about how we talk. Here are just a few examples of Words With Different Meanings In South Dakota:
