Celeb Secrets Country: Tell us about your new single, “Baby This and Baby That”
Jon Wolfe: ““Baby This and Baby That’ was written by Jonathan Singleton, Deric Ruttan, and Darius Rucker. I try to write as much on my albums, but when I heard this song I had to record it! I fell in love with it first time I heard it.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What made it stand out enough for it to be your single?
Jon Wolfe: “I felt like it really represented what I do. It’s up-tempo and modern, but it is still really country. It’s got one of those classic hooks that you used to hear in the 90’s. I’m a big 90’s country fan, so it was an easy decision to make it my new single.”
Celeb Secrets Country: Your new album, Any Night In Texas, is out! What are you most proud of about it?
Jon Wolfe: “Well, I’m really proud of the entire work. This album took a lot to get finished due to the amount of touring I’ve done in the past few years, so when it finally got done it was big sense of accomplishment. I’m also really proud of every song on it. Each song was either written or hand picked for this project. I really don’t believe in “filler songs”, so I worked extra hard to make sure the songs are as strong as possible.”
Celeb Secrets Country: How would you compare this album to your previous ones?
Jon Wolfe: “This album was heavily influenced by my live show, and in my opinion, this album has a wider variety of styles as compared to the previous albums. There’s stuff that’s super country all way to things that are mainstream feeling.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What was it like to find out “Boots On a Dance Floor” reached #1 on Texas Radio?
Jon Wolfe: “”Boots on a Dance Floor” was the first song to get this project started. I fell in love with it from the first time I heard it. Super thankful that it’s become a big song for me. And it always feels to good to reach the top of the Texas charts!”
Celeb Secrets Country: How would you describe your sound for someone who hasn’t heard you yet?
Jon Wolfe: “Well, I always say that I’m modern traditional country. If you like George Strait and some of the classic singers, I hope you’ll like me.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is your favorite aspect of touring?
Jon Wolfe: “I always enjoy seeing a new part of the country and meeting new fans. It’s definitely the most rewarding part of touring.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What can we expect to see from you the rest of this year?

Celeb Secrets Country: Since we are Celeb Secrets Country, what is a secret about yourself that you’d like to share with us?
Jon Wolfe: “Well, I think something that most people don’t know about me is that right out of high school I initially went to Bible College. For a moment in time I was going to go into the ministry, then I discovered old school country music! I guess I’m just a preacher of a different kind now!”
