Mr. Willy is a fun & silly music man that young children love, with 25+ years of experience singing songs, playing guitar, and telling stories.
His songs have been recorded by acts as diverse as Peter, Paul & Mary and Barney the purple dinosaur (he was a staff songwriter for Barney for 10 years), and his storytelling is informed by decades of experience in live theatre.
He does concerts for grown-ups also!
Willy has performed at schools, libraries, day-cares, malls, birthday parties, weddings, nightclubs, Off-Broadway, regional theatres, on the Circle Line around Manhattan, on the McKinney Avenue Trolley, his mom's kitchen . . . you name it, he's probably sung or told stories there.

August 30, 2022Can't thank Mr. Willy enough for singing a song for my mom that she used to sing to me when I was just a baby. She was so surprised and he did a fantastic job of helping to make her day special! Thank you again Mr. Willy. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking book an event of their own.

August 2, 2021Wonderful experience! The kids were engaged the whole time! Mr. Willy is so funny and the
original music is really special. He came for my son's 5th birthday party but all kids from 2 yrs to 10 yrs loved him. Thank you so much, Mr Willy!! I would book him again in a minute.

I am pretty self-supporting - I usually only need a three-prong outlet, bringing my own sound system (I have a small one and a large one, depending on the venue) and room to put it.
For birthday parties, I need some space for my boombox and bag of puppet and other miscellany.
