Enjoy the funny ones and unexpected tearjerkers. As music has become more and more accessible to people, and the ideas by one person can spread to millions within seconds, it has become harder and harder for stubborn critics to pigeonhole an artist within a genre. Austin native Willy McGee might be the toughest task yet when giving his music a listen. The thirty-one-year-old singer/songwriter has a voice reminiscent of some of country’s greatest with its baritone register and raspy tone. However, his production blends the country guitar sounds and blues licks. 'Austin Texas' Coded humor & sneaky heartbreaker tunes bop through this character and the band he brings with him. Influenced by 70's hand me down records of Willis Alan Ramsey, Jerry Jeff Walker, & Flying Burrito Brothers led to a friendship with Luke Bell, Jeremy Ivey, Margo Price that required he spend his day job money on making records at the Bomb Shelter rather than 'vacation'. Too weird for LA & too broke for NYC, this Half Time competitive slacker enjoys a laugh at the bar with strangers and a van ride across the interstates choking the steering wheel.
Willy McGee plays a distinct blend of alt-country and roots rock characterized by raspy baritone vocals, witty lyricism, and classic guitar hooks.
