About Me


Willie Stradlin is a Southern Rock/Country band from Northwest Arkansas. They have been together since late 2005. They are heavily influenced by the Texas/Oklahoma Red Dirt scene, and bring to the genre their own brand of rowdy southern Rock ‘n’ Roll. Their set list currently includes favorites by Cross Canadian Ragweed, Reckless Kelly, and Stoney Larue, as well as a healthy dose of their own sing-alongs and toe-tappers.
Willie released their debut self-titled CD in September 2007. This 13 song disc was recorded at DirtyBird Studio in Norman Oklahoma with Travis Linville and Mike McClure (Cross Canadian Ragweed) producing. It includes some backup vocals by Austin Allsup, as well as instrumental and vocal performances by Travis and Mike. The disc was mixed and mastered by Joe Hardy (ZZ Top). It includes one Izzy Stradlin cover “Chop Away”, and twelve original tunes. The CD is currently available at all major online outlets including iTunes and CD Baby, and is set to be distributed by Smith Music to regional Best Buy and Hastings stores in April.
Willie Stradlin is currently playing all over Arkansas, Oklahoma, north Texas, southern Kansas and Missouri. Their first single "Aint That Right" is hitting radio in February 2008. The Euro-Americana chart puts Willie Stradlin at number 10 for February! Stay tuned, Willie is heating up! ..
