Songwriter, producer, and guitarist extraordinaire Cory Wong has united with Portland, OR-based electronic music artist Big Wild for their new collaboration, “Crisis“. An official live performance video – originally featured earlier this week in the second season premiere of Wong’s inventive online musical variety series, Cory and the Wongnotes – can be seen now below.
“Crisis (Feat. Big Wild)” marks the latest track release from Wong’s much anticipated new album, POWER STATION, out Friday, April 29. Fans can pre-save the album HERE and pre-order the vinyl HERE.
Created and hosted by the seemingly inexhaustible Wong, Cory and the Wongnotes began its second season earlier this week with IMITATION (Feat. Big Wild), streaming now via the Minneapolis, MN-based artist’s hugely popular YouTube channel. New episodes showcasing live performances, original sketch comedy, special guests, interviews, and much more will debut every Tuesday. A consummate reflection of Wong’s outsized vision and unstoppable passion for music, comedy, performance, and conversation, the new season of Cory and the Wongnotes will feature extended episodes showcasing long-form interviews, fresh new sketches, and unprecedented collaborations with musical guests including Chromeo, Billy Strings, Victor Wooten, Bela Fleck, Lindsay Ell, Mark Lettieri, Sierra Hull, Larry Carlton, Joey Dosik, and Nate Smith.
