British singer-songwriter/producer Willie Dowling is heading out on a headline tour of the UK in February 2025. Willie will be performing songs from his new critically acclaimed album of piano led songs; The Simpleton, and perhaps a song or two from his previous bands. "I look forward to returning to some of my favourite venues, and playing in a few places that are completely new to me”.
I’m sure you’ll have caught wind of it so think of this as a gentle reminder if you’ve yet to hear it, but I have a new song out. It’s called The Simpleton and it's the title track of my album out later this year. The Simpleton is available as a digital download from all the usual online places, but since it’s Bandcamp Friday you might want to check it out on Bandcamp - and stream or download it.
The Simpleton is the title track from the forthcoming album of piano driven songs by singer/songwriter/producer Willie Dowling. The song is now available to stream on Spotify and download from Bandcamp.
A final song from Willie Dowling for 2023. We’ve Got It Made' is available to stream or download from Bandcamp.
