"His songwriting is just incredible and it’s had a real impact on me.” - Eddie Vedder

Will Dailey is an acclaimed independent recording artist, performer and artist advocate. His sound has been described as a venn diagram of multiple genres with a rich vintage vibe channeled through his authentic, wry and energetic performances. All inspiring famed rock journalist Dan Aquilante to call him “the real deal”. Dailey's albums are met with stellar reviews. They have 13 million spins on Spotify, top 20 on the national Billboard Heat Seeker chart twice and he’s won 8 Boston Music Awards including Album of the Year, Artist of the year for his album National Throat that he released after leaving Universal Records to start his own label.

He has shared the stage and studio with Eddie Vedder, Willie Nelson, Roger McGuinn, Kay Hanley, G Love, Steve Earle, and Tanya Donelly. In June of 2013 he was featured on a Stephen King/John Mellencamp project produced by T Bone Burnett called Ghost Brothers Of Darkland County and, in that same year, also released an original song he wrote inspired by Jack Kerouac's Tristessa.  Dailey has played at Farm Aid four times alongside Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews and John Mellencamp. His latest album, Golden Walker, was released summer of 2018 and hit #1 on Billboards Northeast Heat seekers. The Boston Herald called the album: “A new peak” and named it an album of 2018. In 2021 Dailey set out to play 100 shows across America, sharing stages with Brandi Carlile, Sharon Van Etten and Pearl Jam.

During the Covid crisis Dailey got to work and raised over 32K for non-salary employees of venues in Boston, other artists and the City of Chelsea through online performances.

In summer of 2022 Dailey released his single “Easy to Be Around”, his first new music since “the before times” in 2019. “Easy to Be Around” shares an airy groove – but there’s a 68 second surprise attached to it. The single slides into a second song that lists the full credits from the instrumentalists to the cover artist and all the audio engineers in between. In an era of music history that’s ruled by algorithms, the double-single of sorts could be considered a risk. Dailey continued this path of human connection over algorithms by releasing the single “Cover of Clouds” exclusively at his merch table while on tour for a one time listen. A song that will never come out on platforms. Only be heard on a pair of headphones at the merch table. Those who took the ride heard the almost 7 minute opus. A meditation on Joni Mitchell and the influences pivotal artist on a younger artists path. Once again, Will Dailey disrupts industry norms - not the other way around.
