In collaboration with multi-instrumentalist and producer Mauricio Mirapalheta, I have been busy in the studio, crafting entirely new and original music for 'It's Only Just Begun,' my first album since the release of Nerve in 1997.

The first singles, "Guiding Me To The Edge" and "Castaway," are available everywhere. Call Out My Name will be released very soon.

🎸 About the Cover:
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a poignant masterpiece from The Beatles' iconic 1968 album, The White Album. Written by George Harrison, it is a moving commentary on the human condition, underscored by its haunting melody and dynamic, weeping guitar solos. This track stands out as a testament to Harrison's songwriting prowess and has since been celebrated as one of rock music's most profound anthems.

In my rendition of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," I aimed to capture the song's soul-stirring essence while infusing it with a bit of my personality and style.

In collaboration with multi-instrumentalist and producer Mauricio Mirapalheta, Wágner has been busy in the studio, crafting songs that will be part of 'It's Only Just Begun,' an album composed entirely of original music. The first single, "Guiding Me To The Edge," is available everywhere. Additionally, "Whatever," "Beds Are Burning," I Ran," "Secret Oktober," and "Steady, as She Goes" can also be found wherever you stream and download music and will later be part of the forthcoming album 'Sonic Memories.'

Wágner - While My Guitar Gently Weeps (A Beatles Cover)

Automatic Sun

I'm Wágner, born and bred in New York City, and I made my mark as a recording artist as far back as the mid-eighties as a new wave solo artist. I co-founded Nerve with Jeff Almeyda in the nineties after taking the lead singer/frontman role in various NYC rock bands. Jeff was known for his massive sound and excellent execution on the drums, and my vocal style has been called impactful and dynamic, distinguishing me from other vocalists of the era. My musical journey kicked off when I was just 15, recording two demos, "Dust" and "Visions of You." These tracks quickly evolved into a 7" single that I distributed.

In 1986, inspired by the New Romantics and the New Wave movement, I breathed new life into these demos for my debut EP, A Way of Life. This EP also featured "The Third Wave of Sorrow" and a dance club remix. Rob "Bung" Bengston, a remarkable producer and engineer, worked on this EP at The Workshoppe Recording Studios. This studio, known for its association with Cy Curnin of The Fixx and housing Blondie's "Betrok Tapes," gained further acclaim when Victor Loud, the famed drummer for Billy Idol, collaborated with me on the 12”, adding his expertise on drums and percussion.

Novus Records launched my debut EP and got nationwide distribution through Important Record Distributors, which later became Relativity Entertainment Distribution (RED) in the 1990s and eventually part of Sony/RED Distribution.

After nearly three decades away from the music scene, I've re-emerged in Orlando, Florida, as a solo artist. In 2023, I teamed up with Mauricio Mirapalheta, a talented multi-instrumentalist with a background in metal and punk. Mauricio is my exclusive music partner, instrumentalist, and producer, adding his significant skills to this thrilling new chapter of my career.
