Diplo has gone country. Ahead of his set this weekend at the 2019 Stagecoach Festival, the producer has unveiled a new country project called Thomas Wesley today (April 24).
The new moniker is borrowed from his birth name, Thomas Wesley Pentz. Country singer Cam is featured on the infectious first track “So Long,” out now.
Alongside thumping beats, Cam’s soothing vocals enter as she promises to treat him well. “Don’t know why you’re scared to let me love you/ You know I could treat you right,” she croons at the track’s start.
