Interview (revised)

an Interview with Mackenzie Williams.
I was interested in learning about what type of music Mackenzie enjoyed Mackenzie's experience with music and how what his opinions on the local music scene in Nashville were. Mackenzie plays guitar in a five-piece band, the Whitewall Gentlemen. They started out in 2009, and since then have had the chance to They perform at different locations around the Nashville area including a local gig at a brewery in Franklin TN. Mackenzie has been playing guitar in the band for the last two years. In addition Last year the band was able to record some of their music at the Belmont studios last year.
When asked about the local music scene Mackenzie said that their main local influence was the Delta Saints. He felt the Whitewall Gentlemen fit into the music scene but their rock sound was definitely not as prevalent as the many singer-songwriters around Nashville. However one local band that largely influences their style is the Delta Saints.
Nonetheless
Mackenzie loves being able to perform live in Nashville and the band has received a great amount of positive feedback. Where the band goes from here is yet to be seen, but Mackenzie hopes to continue playing as long as all of the members remain at Belmont. And who knows, perhaps after school is over the Whitewall Gentlemen will still be out performing in Nashville.
