David Wills is an American country music singer and songwriter born in Pulaski, Tennessee on October 23, 1951.
Wills joined Frank Speer’s local rock n roll band, “The Dynamic Downbeats” where they played the local hops around Pulaski, Tennessee. He entered a talent contest in Southaven, Mississippi where he met Charlie Rich’s manager, Sy Rosenberg, who offered him a contract with Epic Records on the spot.
Wills charted 21 records as an artist from 1974 to 1988 that included “There’s A Song On The Jukebox” and “Barrooms to Bedrooms” that reached Top 10 on the US Country Charts in 1975.
Wills was signed to three major Nashville record labels commencing with Epic Records in 1974, United Artist Records in 1977 and RCA in 1983. He wrote extensively for Charley Pride Music Group resulting in some of the most celebrated songs in the business.
Wills co-wrote with Blake Mevis “If You Thinking You Want A Stranger” (There’s One Coming Home) for George Strait that charted at three on the US Country Charts in 1981. He then co-wrote with Bill Shore “Leona” for Sawyer Brown that peaked at sixteen on the US Country Charts in 1984. He co-wrote “Charlotte’s In North Carolina” for Keith Whitley in 1984 with Blake Mevis, Dean Dillon and Kent Robbins. He co-wrote “You’re The Last Thing I Needed Tonight” for John Schneider that became a number one hit in 1986. He also co-wrote with Bill Shore “Wild Horses” for Garth Brooks’ “No Fences” album in 1990. When it was released as a single in 2000, it reached seven on the US Country Charts and together sold over 23 million copies.
David Wills is a man of very high character and is artistically remarkable with his style of lyric writing. He also has a distinctively impressive baritone voice that still resonates perfectly to compliment his lyrics. He has made a significant impact on country music for five decades as an artist and as a songwriter, and he continues to release new material connecting generations through his music while remembering his kind and humble beginnings in east Tennessee where he got his start.
