Wil Deynes

Sometimes I get lazy and just feel like sharing inbox music with quotes from other publicists.
"Songs with a pop sensibility that appeal to all ages. This timeless sound is gaining Wil a steady following on the east coast."
BLENDER MAGAZINE
Other times the music is good enough that I not only want to share, but I want to give my own tidbit of input. So read on for my take on Wil Deynes.

You know how sometimes people sound familiar, while also sound original and fresh? I'd say Wil Deynes is like that. Put Ben Folds, Dashboard Confessionals and Keane in a blender, hit the switch and the sound you hear will be Deynes.

On the indie scene this might be considered a beer coaster, too poppy, too mainstream. I wish the indie yuppies (myself only sometimes included) weren't so bent on following the silly mind set that if it sounds like something potentially top 40 then it's a waste. I've got news for you...even indie artists would like some billboard air play.
