Diplo Presents Thomas Wesley: Chapter 2 – Swamp Savant

Check out “Sad in The Summer” featuring rising country star Lily Rose here.

Swamp Savant features previously shared tracks “Use Me (Brutal Hearts)” featuring Dove Cameron and Sturgill Simpson (reborn as Johnny Blue Skies)—which arrived alongside a video starring Sean Penn—and “Wasted” featuring Kodak Black and Koe Wetzel.

“To prepare for this new Thomas Wesley project, I went back to my father’s house in Florida and I spent six months learnin guitar, gettin in touch with nature, working his boat when the shrimp were running on full moons at the trailer park,” Diplo says. “I tried on a lot of cowboy hats. I rode a lot of motorcycles and horses basically reflected on my whole life and career and connection with this music…there was a lot. It all started in the swamps I was raised in. This is the greatest single piece of work I’ve ever done, I can promise you that.”

This weekend, Diplo will bring Thomas Wesley to Stagecoach for the third time, returning this year for his annual “Late Night in Palomino” festival closer and curating his own stage, Diplo’s HonkyTonk, throughout the weekend with sets from Dillon Francis, Girl Talk, Lost Frequencies and more. He’s also set to play a very special Thomas Wesley show May 10 at Nashville’s Wildhorse Saloon, with support from Paul Cauthen—get tickets here.
