Will Dailey & His Band

“Good songwriting isn’t a matter of hiding behind shiny production or an over-stylized persona… If anything, it is committed to the beauty of simplicity.” — Jon Karr, New York Minute Magazine

Will Dailey is an acclaimed independent recording artist, performer, artist advocate, and sonic survivor. His sound has been described as a Venn diagram of multiple genres with a rich vintage vibe and a firm appreciation of AM rock, pop, and big hooks. There is an artistic DIY spirit fueling all of it, bringing in the spins, Billboard charts, rave reviews, and Boston and New England Music Awards. Famed rock journalist Dan Aquilante has called him “the real deal.”

Dailey’s album National Throat was met with stellar reviews, over 8 million spins on Spotify, and a spot in the top 20 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart. It was named Album of the Year in the Boston Music Awards, New England Music Awards, and Improper Bostonian. His 2018 album Golden Walker hit #1 on Billboard’s Northeast Heatseekers. The Boston Herald called the album “A new peak” and named it an Album of the Year. Dailey is a three-time winner of the Boston Music Award for Best Singer/Songwriter, 2014 Artist of the Year, and a two-time winner for Male Vocalist.
