Sidewalk Records recording artist Wyn Starks mixes buoyant pop melodies with anthemic, club-friendly beats on “Linger,” a propulsive single about the kind of relationship that’s worth savoring every second.
his debut EP, Who I Am, “Linger” finds Wyn Starks continuing to expand his acclaimed blend of pop, soul, and R&B. He co-wrote the song with Jason Walker and Kipp Williams, showcasing the vocal power and compositional chops that have already pushed Who I Am’s first track, “Circles,” to more than 1.25 million streams on Spotify alone.
Raised in Minneapolis, Wyn sang his first solos in church. The soaring power of gospel music took ahold of him at a young age, as did the pop songs and soul classics that he’d listen to at home, hidden from the rest of the world behind his family’s couch, headphones pressed to his ears. Wyn began creating music of his own — music that made room for the wide range of his influences while also pushing forward into unexplored territory. Looking for a town whose music community was as diverse as his art, he headed to Nashville, signing a record deal with Curb Records during his first six months in town.
