Buddy Wayne

Buddy Wayne is a Vancouver-based singer-songwriter known for introspective and emotionally resonant music that blends elements of indie folk, alt-country, and lo-fi rock & roll. Drawing inspiration from artists like Will Oldham, David Berman, and Jason Molina, Buddy Wayne crafts songs that delve into love, loss, and absurdist reflection. Waynes music is characterized by its raw, unpolished sound, often recorded in home studios, giving it an intimate and personal feel. His songwriting is marked by a deep emotional resonance, capturing the complexities of human experience with authenticity and vulnerability. Buddy Wayne released a brand new album on July 4, 2025. For listeners interested in exploring his work, Buddy Wayne’s catalog is available on all major streaming platforms and wherever fine records are sold.
