Peter Paul & Mary are fans: "for sure, he's a great song-writer with an engaging voice and masterful guitar playing but it's willy welch's authenticity of spirit that sells me: his music arrives in your heart with warmth, charm and gracious wit." - noel paul stookey / peter, paul & mary (PP&M covered the first song on this album as "Right Field" in 1987. What an honor that was!) The folks who book me are too: "His background as an actor, a musician, his humor and stage presence all combine to bring his well-crafted songs to life. Out of the hundreds of performers I’ve seen on our stage, I consider Willy to be one of the best. He connects with his audiences whether he’s in a theatre or concert venue or someone’s living room."
