Lyrebird Presents at Meeniyan – Willie Watson (USA)

Celebrated folk singer Willie Watson returns to Meeniyan Town Hall with a suite of new music, produced alongside members of Punch Brothers and Milk Carton Kids, that reckon with heartbreak, memory, sobriety and hope, carried by Watson’s exquisite rural tenor and timeless sense of songcraft.

Following on from the release of his first true collection of original songs WILLIE WATSON, the celebrated folk singer returns to Meeniyan Town Hall in March sharing and celebrating music in the American folk tradition.

Co-founder of Old Crow Medicine Show and Gillian Welch & David Rawlings collaborator, Willie Watson is back with a suite of new music, produced alongside members of Punch Brothers and Milk Carton Kids, that reckon with heartbreak, memory, sobriety and hope, carried by Watson’s exquisite rural tenor and timeless sense of songcraft.

Stripped of the cowboy hat and expectations, Watson has emerged as a songwriter of rare depth and truth. His new work stands proudly alongside the folk canon he has long championed – songs that remind us of our shared burdens, resilience and the possibility of renewal.

Supporting Willie Watson is Melbourne-based guilt slinger, song singer, chain blinger A.C. Saunders.
