Hi Wil,

Just loved seeing you in Stratford last month.I have almost worn out my new “In This  Together” cd ,sounds great!. Just wondering if you plan on releasing “shipwrecked” as a single sometime. Please refresh the lyrics of Copperhead Road by Steve Earle.Your cover of that song was amazing. Hoping you come back to Ontario sometime!!!!!!!!!!

Regards Perry Hammer

Andersen took the stage after Wil — a Calgary raised roots singer/songwriter with one missing “l” and no last name now living in British Columbia — won over the packed house. Strumming an old, battered and beaten acoustic guitar, he introduced seven songs of love and death spanning 200 years. His voice — which is a dead ringer for American roots artist Ray LaMontagne’s — had the effect of making the audience, many of who who still eating, pin-drop quiet in a matter of a few bars.rreid@therecord.com

Hey everybody, just checkin’ in with an update. On tour now with Matt Andersen in Ontario, he is awesome as a performer and as a person, check out his website at www.stubbyfingers.ca
Having alot of fun thus far, only 5 shows under our belt so far but the response has been amazing with a recent encore in Kingston. We are in Orillia tonight, playing theaters which is truly great and where I love to be. The new album comes out officially April 6th but you can come to the show and pick a copy up in advance.

Cheers,

Wil
