“A man who embodies the true spirit of rock n’ roll.” –London Times
The New York Times called Buffalo, NY born Willie Nile "one of the most gifted singer-songwriters to emerge from the New York scene in years." Uncut Magazine called him “A one-man Clash” and “the unofficial poet laureate of New York City”. His album Streets Of New York was hailed as “a platter for the ages” by Uncut. Rolling Stone listed The Innocent Ones as one of the “Top Ten Best Under-The-Radar Albums of 2011” and BBC Radio called it “THE rock ‘n’ roll album of the year.” His single from that album, “One Guitar,” was the “Top Pick of the Week” in USA Today.
Bono, Bruce Springsteen, Pete Townshend, Lou Reed, Lucinda Williams, Jim Jarmusch, and Little Steven are among those who have sung his praises. Willie has toured across the U.S. with The Who and has sung with Bruce Springsteen and Ringo Starr. As the induction program from the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame says: “His live performances are legendary.”
His live album “Willie Nile – Live At Daryl’s House Club” released in April 2024 was listed as one the “Best Rock Albums of the Year’ in Classic Rock Magazine. PowerPop magazine wrote: "A life-changer -- recorded at a moment when Willie & Company happened to be the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world!"
Willie is currently working on a new studio album for a June 2025 release.
