  • Bio

    ................ Originally from Co. Antrim N. Ireland now residing in beautiful Wiltshire, England, Willo's Song is the working title for a musical project involving award winning singer/songwriter Daryl Ball and various other friends, family and musicians to have fun and make music that they enjoy. .. In 2001 I left the UK and spent three years living and travelling in New Zealand. After a brief spell in Canada I returned to Wiltshire, UK in Summer 2004. After finding new direction and inspiration from artists like Damh the Bard, Fairport Convention,Clannad and Medieval Baebes by early 2008 I had started actively writing music again, concentrating on a more acoustic folky style... As a taster of what was to come a 'xmas' E.P. was released in Dec'08 called 'Yule Trio' featuring three tradional xmas songs but reworked with Pagan themes and lyrics. Work continued in 2009 and the end result is an album featuring a couple of previously unreleased tracks from 'Stripped', a few new compositions and a couple of covers of folk songs. Released on 1st April 2009 and titled 'The Storyteller' some of the songs are available to preview here. Response and reviews have been very positive as were live dates to promote the album... There are also plans to play a few live dates later this year, trying out a mix of old and new material. Two new tracks are now recorded for possible release on a follow up album! More details to follow... .. ......
