Jason Lee Wilson and James County, pictured from the Caverns venue near Monteagle, Tennessee, will feature on the Friday, April 23, edition of Overdrive's Music to Truck By.
Host “Big Al” Weekley will take listeners back six decades Friday morning as he interviews country singer Claude Gray, whose "I'll Have Another Cup of Coffee (Then I'll Go)" was a hit in 1961.
That segment, along with a focus on Jason Lee Wilson, former trucker and 2016 winner of the Overdrive-Red Eye Radio Trucker Talent Search, will be highlights of “Overdrive’s Music to Truck By: Today’s tunes from the men and women behind the wheel.” The two-hour show streams at 10 a.m. Eastern every Friday from The Bluegrass Jamboree network.
Gray, a singer-songwriter and guitar player, was best known for his 1960 hit "Family Bible," which has been covered by many artists. His "Another Cup Of Coffee" was covered and rearranged by the late reggae artist Bob Marley, who retitled the song as "One Cup Of Coffee."
Since winning the Talent Search, Wilson left trucking to work in automotive and truck customizing, and has stayed active in the music scene of East Tennessee, where he lives.
He and his James County band last year released the album “Tennessee.” Wilson and the band have since released the music video for the “Come Down” single from that album.
