Buck Wimberly — known musically as Buck Moon — is a singer-songwriter whose work is rooted in personal transformation, self-discovery, and the quiet process of becoming.

He grew up in rural Texas, raised Southern Baptist, in small communities where being a creative, closeted gay kid came with its challenges. For a long time, that meant learning how to hide parts of himself — trying to avoid bullying, fit into his church community, and feel accepted by the people around him.

At 33, Buck came out after working through a period of depression. That moment marked the beginning of a deeper journey — one that’s still unfolding.

Now, as a father of two and living with his life partner, his focus has shifted toward healing what came before. Through practices rooted in expanded awareness, nature, and shamanic traditions, he’s been learning how to reconnect with himself — and with something larger than himself.

That journey shows up directly in his music.

Buck writes as a way to process, reflect, and tell the truth about what he’s lived. His sound weaves together elements of folk, roots, Americana, country, indie, and subtle electronic textures — creating space for stories that are honest, human, and sometimes a little uncomfortable.

At the heart of it all is a simple belief: that healing the world starts with learning how to heal ourselves.

His songs explore themes of identity, love, loss, mental health, growth, and the ongoing search for meaning. They’re less about having answers, and more about being willing to ask the questions.

His debut single, “Indigo Night,” is a reflection of a transformative rites of passage experience in the mountains of North Carolina — a kind of sonic journal capturing a moment that shifted the direction of his life.
