Wille and the Bandits

One of the most exciting and talked about acts to emerge in the past year, their sound seems to be an amalgamation of the best elements of music from every era, creating a new vibe which is wholly their own. Imagine dusting off your old vinyl and blasting it out in your new spaceship.

Front man Will Edwards is regarded by many as one of the most innovative lap steel players in the country, while the guitar lays across his lap all sorts of sounds can be heard, from the soft trippy soundscape’s associated with Dave Gilmore’s playing right through to the thunderous distorting blues licks of Rage against the Machine. 

They have appeared live on ITV, BBC Radio London, Bristol, Cornwall and Devon. Headlined shows in England, toured France, Belgium, Holland and Germany and have a tour of Eastern Europe booked before the festival season. After selling out copies of their first EP in under a year, the band will be touring the UK in April and performing at IVYLIVE in September to promote their debut album.
