Wilmington-area band featured on popular YouTube channel

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — A Wilmington-area country band is gaining wider attention after being featured on a prominent YouTube music channel known for spotlighting independent artists.

Gage Saylor and the Creekside Boys, based in Brunswick County, were recently featured on Radiowv, a channel with approximately 600,000 subscribers that highlights unsigned Americana and country musicians.

The platform gained national attention in recent years for helping introduce artists to broader audiences, including country singer Oliver Anthony, whose music reached a wide audience after appearing on the channel.

The band shared the news on social media, calling the opportunity significant.

“We are so thrilled to finally announce we were featured on radiowv,” the group wrote in a Facebook post. “We are so beyond blessed to have had the opportunity to do this.”

The video was recorded during a visit to the Sunset Beach area, where the channel’s creator sought out local talent. Radiowv is known for featuring stripped-down performances, often recorded in outdoor or rural settings.

The band has upcoming shows in Surf City, Southport, and Wilmington.
