Lukas Nelson & Stephen Wilson Jr. Deliver Captivating Acoustic Performance Of “Disappearing Light”

This is a performance you don’t want to miss. Two of the most underrated artists in the country music genre right now (in my humble opinion) are Stephen Wilson Jr. and Lukas Nelson. Both are incredibly talented and boast their own, uncommon sounds. Sure, Lukas Nelson’s might share similarities with the sound of his legendary father – Willie Nelson. But at the end of the day, there aren’t two artists out there that are more  than Stephen Wilson Jr. and Luke Nelson. Thus, when the two get together, it results in must-listen content. It was last summer when Lukas Nelson released his first, solo album, American Romance. On it, the son of Willie Nelson carved out his own lane, and provided a handful of hit songs that really showcased his ability to stand alone and separate from his previous backing band, Promise of the Real. The project included two features: Sierra Ferrell and Stephen Wilson Jr. Nelson and Wilson Jr. joined together on a track called “Disappearing Light,” and because Stephen has benefited from a surge in his career (stemming from his “CMA New Artist of the Year” nomination), the song is definitely worth revisiting. Especially since the pair recently performed the track together for the Tiny House Concert Series. The haunting ballad sees Lukas take a verse and chorus before handing it over to Stephen Wilson Jr. to take care of the same. The two artists then come together at the end of the song, and hearing them belt out the chorus in the studio version of the song is very moving: “The hills that feel like home are hills of heartache Build the engine just to watch the parts break Everything I know will go in time Crash to simplify the situation Burn to purify the naked lie Entropy is breaking down my patience Everything I know will go in time And, I watch A meteor go by like a highway, hallelujah Burning diesel in the sky And, I watch The fire flying by and I fear the disappearing light is mine.” And as it turns out, “Disappearing Light” is taken to a whole other level when Wilson Jr. and Nelson perform it live. The Tiny House Concert Series (filmed in Wilmington, North Carolina) recently had the two country stars stop by, and they were thrilled to be the setting for the emotional duet that Wilson Jr. and Nelson so graciously provided: “We were lucky enough to film a rare duet with Stephen Wilson Jr. and Lukas Nelson while they belted out an acoustic ‘Disappearing Light.’ You could feel the deep emotional connection they both had to the tune written by them both.” There’s no doubt that Stephen Wilson Jr. and Lukas Nelson find themselves very comfortable within the song they penned together. Call me corny if you want to, but I’d say they brought the tiny house down with this rendition of “Disappearing Light” that could have very easily filled up the biggest stadiums in the country.
