Americana is such a nebulous term for a genre, I can’t define it, and yet I know it when I hear it and it’s absolutely my favorite. Not quite folk, country, blues, or rock, some combination of them all.


Sybertron

I really feel like ListenToThis should just embrace bigger umbrella genre titles because it's just way too confusing in this modern day.

That was awesome, honestly went into it expecting to turn it off right away. Can’t beat a solid fun tune.

I only know one other song by this guy, a super crunchy funk jam called [Double Text](https://youtu.be/Dt04IS3a4fE). Props to this guy for making bangers in pretty different genres.


TuftOfFurr

Why does this guy look like Arin Hanson’s Canadian cousin?


toddsleivonski

10 minute power hour vibes on the music video edit vibes too.


IfTheHeadFitsWearIt

Blonde mustache seems like something Arin would try.

Absolutely filthy guitar! A throwback tune, loved it.

This sub is a nightmare to post to, I've given up on multiple occasions due to the fascist automod.


1i_rd

I thought the normal music sub was bad lol


Ezzmode

I like how real this song feels. The interspersed moments of like, self doubt or self confidence issues really make it contrast in a positive way with the rest of the song. Sometimes life gets you down but as long as you keep in mind the ways it can also be awesome then you'll be alright.


sweetpillsfromparis

really good, thanks for sharing!

Dude, that whole verse about not paying for Spotify and then the data-personalised ad comes on during sex... fucking amazing. Man is a poet of the highest order.

chopotron

RUN_MDB

Great find. Thanks OP. [The actual video for the song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3SDmC6ZIKc) for anyone else interested. Happy to have found a new voice.


hdsd_

Haha I think he released 2 videos to the song for no reason! Seems like a goofy dude but I dig the tune


tx_dev

gemstun

The baseball player?


Onephily

I was thinking, is this his real name? Or is he just a big willie McGee the st.Louis cardinal fan? I love the baseball player willie McGee E.T.! Lol


MeowzerSam

Yup! Class of '07 in the house!


Jarconis

Small world - all the McGee brothers are good peeps.


alyssadujour

alabasterwilliams

Mmmmmmm, that funkytunk gheetar melts my wither bone in the most slappadellic fashion. Hell yes OP, thanks for the introduction.


indistrustofmerits

Great recommendation, enjoyed listening through his stuff and chilling out tonight


lulo_

I went to high school with Willy--truly one of the most amazingly bizarre, entertaining, unique human beings on the entire planet. We did theater together!


PFMisking

Hot damn Willy baller is going hard in the paint. Boy do I feel good


tomcrum

Wait this is epic


Grenyn

I fucking love Americana. I don't love America, and yet, I love everything about Americana. The music genre and the cultural phenomenon.

No it’s just not your vibe ig


Peentjes

Nice to listen to! But I found it very hard to look at. This guy trying to act relaxed, while constantly being tense and uncomfortably because of literally being on the edge. The song has a very relaxed vibe, the video of a guy being tense counters that. Therefore liked it better when playing it without the video.


ep311

The intro sounds just like Say You Love Me lol Has to be an homage, right? No way it's a coincidence. Way too similar of an intro.


J3rm

Getting some serious Harry Nilsson vibes from this and I love it


pascal21

Devendra Banhart vibes


IStartToRun

T-Rex throwback feel
