Willy Porter has long been known for his innovative and expressive guitar playing. The Boston Globe compares his playing to speed picker Leo Kottke.
A singer, songwriter, storyteller, entertainer, and extraordinary guitarist, Willy Porter defies labels and bends genres. He moves between slide blues, acoustic folk, grooving rock, and soulful pop with grace and equipoise. They all combine to create the uniqueness that is his sound.
Willy Porter forged a connection to his fans from his earliest performing experiences that would continue to reverberate even when opening for the audiences of artists like Tori Amos, Paul Simon and Jeff Beck (Willy recently opened for Jeff Beck at the Lakewood Civic Auditorium).
"[Seth Glier] an exquisite tenor echoes Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel."

22-year-old singer, pianist and guitarist Seth Glier abandoned studies at The Berklee College of Music after one year because he “decided [he] should be playing for people and not for grades.”
Seth aims straight for the gut & has quickly established himself on the national scene. In 2010, Glier shared stages with such diverse artists as James Taylor, Mark Knopfler, The Verve Pipe, and Edwin McCain.
