Born on July 11, 1979, Wilson was raised in Seymour, Indiana. Introverted as a youth, Wilson and his brother were guided by their father into competitive boxing. This experience, culminating in Golden Gloves amateur boxing competitions, helped him conquer stage fright.
Wilson recalls how country singer Tim McGraw’s song “Don’t Take the Girl” profoundly impacted him as a child. Raised poor by a single dad, and with an absent mother who suffered through abusive relationships, the song’s storytelling sparked in him a passion for lyrics and poetry, leading him to begin writing his own songs.
Wilson’s father died in September 2018.
