The country music world is in mourning today following the passing of John Wesley Ryles, a voice that helped define a generation of heartfelt storytelling and harmony.
The beloved singer, known for his golden tone and impeccable phrasing, died peacefully on November 2, 2025, at the age of 74.
Didn’t have electricity or a television
In a time when new country stars like Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, and Chris Stapleton are taking the world by storm, it’s easy to forget the hidden gems from the past — the voices who paved the way and built the foundation for today’s country sound.
In my book, John Wesley Ryles is definitely one of those slightly forgotten stars, the kind whose light may not have always shone in the spotlight, but whose glow helped illuminate the entire path for those who followed.
