Wayfarer Music Group has been extremely busy behind the scenes the past few months developing new ways to support their family of artists and today we are excited to announce one of the latest ways we are doing just that. Starting in January 2025, Wayfarer will be showcasing one of their artists a month on their official YouTube channel with a Brand-New series called Highlights. Highlights will be a one hour program focused on selections by each month’s artist from the Wayfarer catalog. Every month you will be able to hear music from different time periods of each artist and even some sneak peeks at things to come later in 2025.

To kick off the Highlights series we could think of no better way to start than with one of Wayfarer’s original legacy artists Daren Keck. Daren has been a part of the Wayfarer family since 2010 and his episode of Highlights will showcase music from his Wayfarer solo releases as well as music from Wayfarer’s special compilation releases. You will also get to hear music from Daren’s brand-new album Moonlit Home releasing worldwide this Friday January 3rd!

To check out Highlights please LIKE & SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel HERE for date and premiere times.

You can help support Daren Keck by checking out any of his fabulous Wayfarer releases at major digital outlets as well as directly from Wayfarer HERE. You can pre-save Moonlit Home at your favorite format HERE
