Sounds Like: Willie B. is drummer Brian Wilson, who regularly plays with one of my heroes Johnny Dowd. His album, Fresh: A-Frame Sessions Vol II, updates Sandy Nelsons percussion chops for the indie-intelligentsia, and anyone else who digs a slightly off-kilter boogedy-beat. Spare, tasteful, guitar and keyboards augment this instrumental gem."
