WILLIS
WILLIS didn’t blow up overnight — they built something lasting. Formed in Florence, Alabama and now based in Nashville, the band began in 2016 as five childhood friends making music in a bedroom. Nearly a decade later, they’ve grown into one of the most loyal followings in modern indie rock — with over 350 million streams, an RIAA Platinum-certified record, and a fully sold-out national headline tour in 2024.
Their breakout track “I Think I Like When It Rains” became a viral anthem, reaching #1 on TikTok’s U.S. chart in 2023 and remaining in the Viral 50 from 2022–2025. WILLIS made their name where it matters most — the stage. Night after night, fans show up in Locals Only tees, singing every word like they’ve been there since day one.
What started as a quiet DIY movement has become a full-on live experience. Across their beloved Locals EP series (Locals, Locals 2, Locals 3, Locals 4) and 2024’s debut album I Can’t Thank You Enough, WILLIS has developed a sound that’s warm, rhythmic, and emotionally direct — nostalgic but never stuck in the past. It’s indie rock that leaves a mark. The band continues to evolve while keeping the same heartbeat that’s been there since the beginning: real connection, real fans, and music built to outlast trends.
