"Willie Breeding hurts to listen to (in a good way, of course). The hooks of this Kentucky native’s songs cut immediately and don’t let up until the last note. Willie’s remarkably good sorrow-laden voice is bait, and we are hungry fish."- Jezebel Music
"In the "Grey Skies" EP, Breeding achieves an emotionally cutting vibe whose acoustic openness and Country lamenting essence gives it purpose"

"The Gram and Emmylou dynamics of the songs blow you away with the feeling and immediacy of it all. “Firing Squad” hangs on with languorous harmonies, the two voices merging like steam and fog pulling you into the song with elemental force" - americana-uk.com
Hailing from Richmond, Ky, Willie has called Brooklyn, NY home since 2005. Since arriving he has released the "Grey Skies" EP, (recorded in Kentucky with producer Duane Lundy) to great reviews and played all over New York City. He is currently touring in support of Brooklyn rock band, Marah, and plans have been made to record his debut LP in New York in the Fall.
I know how much you admire his ladies skills and OBVIOUSLY you are in no need of any pointers but take a close look at his use of carrot sticks. It is beyond original and admirable!
