The members of 93 West always knew they were called.....
to take a message of faith and hope down the "highways and biways" of small town Texas. The nearest highway they could find was "West FM/Hwy 93". Hence, the name "93 West" was conceived.
Country music has always been linked to the hardworking, faithful people of the rural communities in Texas. 93 West is continuing to bridge these ideas by blending wholesome lyrics with rich harmony vocals and a western edge. Understanding that music is one of the few things that can give hope to the broken hearted, 93 West has allowed their faith in God, families, and small town roots to define their music. This combination makes 93 West appropriate for any venue.
Growing up in the small Texas town of Rogers, lead singer Jeremy Wentrcek has always identified with life in the country. Raised by a family of farmers He could not escape his roots. When asked what led him to his decision to form 93 West Jeremy said....
"I just can't run away from who I am. For years I thought there were greener pastures in both life and music. I tried to be something I wasn't. Now I realize how much I was blessed in that little town. The people I grew up around were like one big family. I want my kids to grow up in that atmosphere so we moved back home. God gave me a song to sing and 93 West is my way of expressing the ideals I grew up with. I've listened to country music since the day I was born, and spent many years playing with local and regional live performers. This is my way of giving back."
When asked what inspires their writing, their answer was simple....
"We want our music to be about imporant things. If God gives you a song to sing you want it to be heard and to impact people. Songs tell a story. If you're going to spend time writing it the story needs to be worth telling. The four most important things to us are our faith, our families, our freedom, and our heritage. That's what we sing about."
