On City Lights’ series “Speaking of Music,” local musicians share work and stories in their voices. In today’s segment, we feature native Georgians Willie Heath Neal and Kira Annalise from the Country music duo The Waymores.

“We play what we refer to as nostalgic Country music,” Annalise said. The two songwriters both play guitar and sing.

Neal got his start in the early 90s when he was in the Navy. “Just out of boredom, some buddies and I started a band and we were fortunate enough to land a few shows overseas and I knew that’s what I wanted to do with the rest of my life,” Neal said.
