Bluesman Lightnin’ Willie has a distinctive approach to his music.
The sound is an irresistible blend of tradition and spontaneous
creativity, with a deliciously insidious emphasis on the groove.
It is a compelling, hard swinging brand of blues that, whenever
he performs, packs the floor—his audience can’t not dance.
A guitarist of impressive facility, a vocalist of coolly stylish authority
and a composer of persuasive original blues that both extend and
enhance the idiom, Willie’s music has a rare individualistic quality.
It is at once airy and full of open space yet also loaded with
earthy, intense emotion, and as featured on his new Pete
Anderson produced album, NO BLACK NO WHITE JUST
BLUES, it showcases a master at the top of his game.
Lightnin Willie has gone from low down beer joints to become staple
on the international festival circuit, with plenty of wild stops along the way, from London’s Royal Albert Hall Ignite Series to
Willie Nelson’s infamous 4th of July Picnic, where he appeared along side Paula Nelson, Willie, Bob Dylan and Leon Russell.
The always dapper Lightnin’ Willie, consistently genuine, never flashy, boundlessly entertaining, is reliably a high
quality blues powerhouse who makes new fans with every performance. These attributes have won him stacks of
enthusiastic praise from the international press, landed his original tunes on numerous flm and television soundtracks
