AndyofHalifax 15339 Report post Posted November 5, 2011 New Brunswick's own Matt Anderson is a tad overweight. He is also completely awesome. Here he is rocking out to Wagon Wheel Matt Anderson - Wagon Wheel This song has some interesting origins. Bob Dylan sketched out the chorus as an outtake when he was making the soundtrack to the Pekinpah film Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. A movie in which he also appeared. The song ended up as a bootleg and Ketch Secor of the Old Crow Medicine Show got a hold of it and wrote the rest of the lyrics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
