"The lyrics, instrumentation the whole damn thing screams STARS AND STRIPES in capitals"- subba-cultcha.com
"I love all types of music, but I’m especially drawn to folks who make music like they are sitting right here in my living room sharing a beer. Willie reaches that height." - eartaste.blogspot.com
"Using the roots of great country and folk music but breathing his own life into those songs, Willie Breeding creates the fresh sound of back to basics country but for a whole new audience of fans."- metrospirit.com
"The arrangements are sumptuous and beautifully thought out - with haunting pedal steel, mandolin, fiddle and even the occasional Spanish horn melding with piano, a taut rhythm section and acoustic & electric guitars "- concertlivewire.com
"The musicianship found on this release though is top notch, and Breeding’s vocals have a haunting feel to them that works well with the subject matter they’re dealing with."- cwsplace.wordpress.com
"Far from winning any American Idol contests, Willie’s less-than-stellar voice actually compliments the “heart on your sleeve” lyrics. It adds a sense of genuine emotion to the tracks, which an auto-tuned voice might lack."- harderbeat.com
"Breeding has imbued his songs with pop sensibility and a gaggle of musicians who accentuate the subtle melodies in his tunes with zealous flair. Just wait till the weather gets warm and you can sit in the back of your truck with some banquet beer and enjoy this contemporary country gem"- leoweekly.com
A Kentuckian by birth, blood and basketball, Willie Breeding has called Brooklyn home since 2005. In that time he has released the "Grey Skies EP" and his full length debut, "Cheap Vodka Rain". He has also toured the east coast, bringing his brand of country-rock to millions. Most recently he has been transformed by the arrival of John Calipari as the new head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats.
Currently Willie and his sister Erin Breeding are recording an album with producer Vince Emmett outside of Nashville.
Willie is also preparing to record another solo EP with producer Duane Lundy in Lexington, KY.
Be on the lookout for lots of music from Willie next year! And, as Willie says, "Go Cats!!!!""
