Heath McNease - Fort Wayne

Copied!

I count my blessings slow
And hope I don't run low
It seems God has a bone to pick with me
And He will not stop picking till I go

Oh, my dear Fort Wayne
Will we meet again
Oh, she sings a bittersweet refrain
But the apple of my eye is still Fort Wayne

I count my blessings loud
And pray I don't run out
It seems God has a thing or two to say
About those skeletons He found inside my house

Oh, my dear Fort Wayne
Will we meet again
Oh, she sings a bittersweet refrain
But the apple of my eye is still Fort Wayne

Oh, she sings a bittersweet refrain
But the apple of my eye is still Fort Wayne
Oh, she sings a bittersweet refrain
But the apple of my eye is still Fort Wayne

Oh, the apple of my eye is still Fort Wayne

Growing up, his musical influences included folk artists like Simon & Garfunkel, The Beatles, and The Carpenters.

However, thanks to his older brothers, Heath’s also a hip-hop nerd, particularly fond of gangsta and Southern rappers like Outkast and Warren G, “f-bombs and all”.

He attended Valdosta State University and graduated in 2006 with a degree in musical theater.

Though faith heavily influences his music, Heath wouldn’t necessarily classify himself as a “Christian” artist. He’s no squeaky-clean, Chris Tomlin, Contemporary Christian Music musician. He exposes his doubts and fears about faith honestly.

From serious to trivial, Heath is a melange of musical styles and content:
