WILLIE
NILE
Time Magazine has written that “the tunes (Willie) writes and plays with such blowtorch vibrancy get the myth
and magic and danger and sadness and love in this town – of this town – truer and righter, than anything I’ve
heard since Dion.” Willie emerged in 1980 with two acclaimed folk rock albums only to be derailed by legal and
record company hassles. Over a decade later, thanks to the support of artists as diverse as Elvis Costello, Lucinda
Williams, Roger McGuinn and Richard Thompson, Willie re-emerged and in recent years has recorded his most powerful albums
to date, including 2006’s “Streets of New York” and this year’s “House of a Thousand Guitars.”
Recently, Willie was Bruce Springsteen’s guest onstage at a couple of the Giants Stadium concerts. Willie will be performing
with his rockin’ trio. Willie Nile. Willie will be joined by his special guests, the
young New York City rockers, The Shake.
