Musical career
Wilhoit grew up Bloomington, Indiana and attended Indiana University, where he studied jazz and percussion. His teachers included David Baker, Shawn Pelton, and Kenny Aronoff. In 1991 he started his first band, The Cutters, with friends from Bloomington. The band was signed to BMG, lasted for eleven years, and released two albums and two EPs. He was also a session musician during this time and contributed to over thirty albums by other musicians.
In 2003 Wilhoit drove from Indiana to New York City to audition for the band Fiction Plane, which impressed Joe Sumner, the band's founder, lead singer, and bassist who hired him. Fiction Plane toured with Sting in 2005 and in 2007 became the opening band for The Police Reunion Tour.
Wilhoit has also played or recorded with Mike Doughty, Sharon Corr, Ari Hest, Declan O'Rourke, Carrie Newcomer, Laura Critchley, Michael McDonald, Bob Dorough, Micheal Brunnock, and I Blame Coco.
