Artist Description
–Lucinda Williams
“Willie’s so good I can’t believe he’s not from New Jersey.”
–Little Steven
“The impassioned voice, the sharp and soulful lyrics, the interesting shoes and large, Kramer-like hair which seems to grow thicker every year – Willie Nile brings it all into focus. Listen to this record.”
–Graham Parker
The New York Times called him "one of the most gifted singer-songwriters to emerge from the New York scene in years." His album “Streets Of New York” was hailed as “a platter for the ages” by UNCUT magazine. He has been called everything from "a one-man Clash" (UNCUT) to "the next Bob Dylan”
and his critically acclaimed solo albums have gotten rave reviews
around the world. Bono, Lou Reed, Lucinda Williams, Jim Jarmusch, Adam
Duritz and Little Steven are among those who have sung his praises.
Willie Nile is a songwriters’ songwriter and his live
performances are legendary. He has toured across the U.S. opening for
The Who at the personal request of the band and was Bruce Springsteen’s
only guest artist at Giant Stadium in ’09. Bruce recently joined Willie
on stage in Asbury Park for Willie’s song “Heaven Help The Lonely."
