You can catch him performing at wide range of lounges & clubs in the Portland area. Sharing intimate evenings with songwriters at showcases around the city. Or see him playing with a rotating mix of player combinations. (Fiddle, sax, upright bass, banjo, drums, percussion and many other surprises) Sounds from up-tempo alt-country tunes to slow groovin' acoustic blues. The scene changes all the time.... it's all about the vibe. Stop by a show and grab the new album -- SHINE ( we think you will like it .... ) Will's Instruments: guitar, vocals, harmonica, percussion -------------------------------------------- "
The introspective, folk singer uses a vodka voice to infuse his music
with an intimate familiarity. His poetic, crossroads commentary is ideally
suited to the acoustic guitar.. ." “a favorite of those delta-blues/folk
lovin' types. This crooner is a storyteller with a soft touch. Check
him out. ” " the Northwest or Southeast?
...the beauty that merges between the regions comes in the form of music.
Sounds of sultry guitar riffs and laid-back vibes... "
