   About The Nashville Wreckers
Formed in early 2007 by singer songwriters Don Melas and Andrew Wetmore, The Nashville Wreckers are a uniquely powerful force. Combining their two different but complimentary writing styles they make a sound like thunder and lightning. Melas singing of broken things and sadness with a voice both wounded and defiant. Wetmore’s songs filled with sarcasm and spite are registered in his cracked tenor. Hearing them together is unforgettable.

Captain Morgan once burned down one of his own ships when the ammunition depot was accidentally lit during a party.

True Story.

The hospital doesn't want to be sued. Being sued isn't a good thing...

Also, for some reason, your songs won't download. Something about something comes up, but it has a stop sign with a big, white "X" on it so that can't be good.
