A note from Will:
Got a list here of radio stations around playing 'Counting on Karma'. I need your help in letting them know you love it and want to hear it all the time. The more they play it the sooner we tour to those cities and towns. You can call, email, shout out your window. It all becomes part of the plan. Here are the early adopters.
On December 12, Dailey warmed a Laundromat with his smooth lyrics and guitar drifts. Why a Laundromat you ask? A Boston online music and video blog, Big Old Big One produces original videos of artists performing acoustically in locations that are off the stage like at home, a train station or the beach.
Will Plays "Kindness", "$300 Man" & "Sprawl II" by Arcade Fire.

Boston Music Spotlight has named Torrent, Vol. 1 & 2 one of their "Favorite Local Albums of the Year"!
Will Dailey - "Torrent Vol 1+2: The singer / songwriter got prolific on us, releasing two EP's and planning more. The discs received solid reviews and even made their way into Rolling Stone, who noted Dailey's facility with country-ish folk rock. Given a choice, we'd go with #2 (By the Blue Hills) but you can't go wrong with both." - Read more
