Seattle Out To Lunch Concert Series: Mycle Wastman

Mycle Wastman will be at Two Union Wends day, July 17th at Noon.
Free Concert

Seattle native Mycle Wastman had a short but memorable run on TV’s “The Voice,”  He almost almost didn’t try out for TV’s popular singing competition, “The Voice.”  At 40, the seasoned vocalist and Chief Sealth High School grad did the reality-show “whirlwind” years earlier, for TV’s “Star Search,” and wasn’t keen on repeating that grueling experience. He joined Green’s team because “he was definitely the most soulful of the coaches up there.” Two more appearances later, Wastman was out of the running.  But after months in Los Angeles, undergoing “an extensive process — everything from psychological evaluation tests, to choosing songs, to movement and vocal coaching,” Wastman returned to Seattle. “I was disappointed but also relieved I didn’t have to play the game anymore. The competition part is very stressful — it just puts your stomach in knots. But ‘The Voice’ has definitely opened up a lot of doors for me.”

Raised in West Seattle by grandparents while his parents grappled with drug addiction and other problems, Wastman sang “in church, the Seattle Boys Choir, high-school vocal ensembles. In my 20s I did a lot of karaoke.” But he set music aspirations aside during a four-year Army hitch (he served in Desert Storm), followed by an Army Reserves stint and construction jobs. “I helped build Safeco Field, the Seattle Convention Center. But when I was about 30, I decided I just wasn’t having much fun if I wasn’t doing music.”

A self-described late bloomer, Wastman changed course. Singing with cover band The Hit Explosion, “I worked on my craft, got better at guitar, started writing songs”  He quit the band to concentrate on his own writing, and put out two independent albums , ‘The Beautiful Stay’ and ‘I’m All Over It’.
