Willie said of this EP, "It means a lot to me for a variety of reasons. First, it is a stripped-down version of me that takes listeners back to how I got here in the first place. For a majority of these songs it's just me and my guitar. It's raw and I really wanted the listener to hear me without all of the bells and whistles that production can add to create a sound. Second, there is an emphasis on my ability to write songs. Lastly, these songs are very much a part of my experience and the growing that has occurred over the last few years. Within these stories is a ton of heart, through real life events that I've shared with close friends and family."
Drawing inspiration from artists like Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Ella Fitzgerald, and Louis Armstrong, he has worked towards fashioning a signature sound. It's just the beginning for Willie; he is already recording EP #2 with an anticipated Spring release!
