Dallas Wayne is a singer, songwriter, radio DJ, voice-over artist, actor

and music producer. He considers himself lucky to make a living doing

things he loves. Some might say it has more to do with talent than luck.


He has performed throughout North America and Europe, releasing 13

albums of his own, and performing on various compilation and band

recordings including the TwangBangers, Heybale! and a Grammy

nominated bluegrass album with Special Consensus.


Dallas released his latest album Coldwater, Tennessee on the

BFD/Audium Nashville label in 2022. Produced by Buddy Cannon, this

album of original tunes includes several co-writes with long-time collaborator Robbie Fulks,

and one written with Buddy Cannon and Whisperin’ Bill Anderson — two of Dallas’

songwriting heroes.


Dallas began performing professionally while in school before moving to Nashville, where he

started songwriting and developed his vocal style singing demos for the top music

publishing houses. While touring Europe in the early 90s, he signed a record deal and soon

moved to Scandinavia where he was a staff songwriter for Warner/Chappell Music.


After four years living and touring in Europe, Dallas returned to the U.S. and signed with

HighTone Records. He later relocated to Austin, TX, releasing albums on the Koch Nashville

and Smith Entertainment labels. In 2016 and 2018 he released a popular collection of

classic country songs on two albums, Songs The Jukebox Taught Me, Volume 1 and

Volume 2, on Heart of Texas Records. This collection includes duets with Willie Nelson,

Jeannie Seely, Darrell and Mona McCall, and Paula Nelson.


Dallas currently lives in Bristol TN/VA, the Birthplace of Country Music.


On the Air


Dallas can be heard on SIRIUS XM Radio: Weekdays from noon to 6

p.m. Eastern at Willie’s Roadhouse (channel 61), Tuesday through

Friday in Outlaw Country (channel 62) from 10 a.m. to noon, and

Sunday from 10 a.m. to noon at Willie's Roadhouse.


He got his start in radio in 1989, drawing on his many years as a

performer. Dallas solidified his radio career when he joined Outlaw

Country on SIRIUS in 2005. A year later he accepted a position at

KHYI 95.3 FM in Dallas where he served as Program Director and

morning drive-time DJ until the end of 2007.


After the merger of SIRIUS and XM in 2008, Dallas became On-Air Personality and

Associate Format Manager for the Texas-based honky-tonk channel Willie’s Place, which

later became Willie’s Roadhouse.
