May 22, 2015, Friday - Live Music at Mattie’s on Main
Time: 9:00pm
Location: Mattie's on Main, 43 Main Street SE
Tonight: Willie Walker
Walker’s music comes from a different time, a different place and a different point of view. He’s one of the few vocalists from the era that is still standing and that can still sing. And the fact that we’re north of Chicago, there aren’t many people in this town that has a past like Walker.
Most recently, Willie has collaborated with the legendary Twin Cities-based soul/blues/R & B powerhouse The Butanes. Together, they recorded three highly acclaimed modern soul records and toured the Netherlands, Switzerland and Japan. He also fronts his own R & B unit, Willie Walker and We “R” with whom he has a monthly residency at the Minnesota Music Café in St. Paul. Willie has also partnered up with Minnesota’s own Paul Metsa, renowned singer, songwriter, author and teller of tales. It’s just Paul’s guitar work and Willie’s voice interpreting everything from “Blowin’ In The Wind” and “My Girl” to “What A Wonderful World” and “Good Time Charlie’s Got The Blues.”
