Instead of conforming to the popularity of hipster music norms or composing the catchiest of tunes, Spree Wilson, the 26-year-old instrumentalist, producer, and emcee sets out to appeal to himself and his creative outlet rather than simply catch a buzz. Music embodies character, and from the music you will find Spree’s character, which is that of a young man looking to rise higher than gun smoke but without the impatient speed of a bullet.Â
