Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey’s Interview with Willie Edwards

Wille Edwards is a Cornwall-based musician, songwriter, and the driving force behind the internationally acclaimed band Wille and the Bandits. Known for his eclectic style and fearless approach to genre, Wille has built a career that moves freely between blues, rock, folk, and world music, creating a sound that feels both timeless and modern.

Over the years, Wille has shared stages with some of the biggest names in music, touring alongside Deep Purple, Status Quo, Joe Bonamassa, the John Butler Trio, and Warren Haynes. His band’s reputation as a powerful live act was cemented in 2014 when Wille and the Bandits were voted one of the Top Ten bands to see at Glastonbury by BBC Radio 1, placing them among the most exciting performers in the UK festival scene.

Wille’s music has taken him around the world, performing at major festivals from the USA to Australia and across Europe. He has crossed musical boundaries with ease, appearing at pop events like the Isle of Wight Festival, hard rock gatherings such as Steelhouse, blues festivals like Peer Blues, surf culture celebrations at Boardmasters, and even the London Olympics, where he was invited to perform after being voted one of the UK’s best live acts by The Daily Telegraph.

As a songwriter, Wille is as prolific as he is versatile. His songs have been playlisted on major radio stations worldwide, and he has achieved success both with his band and as a solo artist. Beyond his own releases, Wille has written for record labels, film directors, and a wide range of artists, working in styles that stretch from blues and rock to Latin and hip hop. That ability to move between genres has made him a sought-after collaborator and a truly modern creative voice.

Whether performing alone with a guitar or leading Wille and the Bandits on a festival stage, Wille Edwards is an artist driven by curiosity, craft, and connection. His music reflects a lifetime of travel, influences, and stories, delivered with passion and authenticity that continue to win audiences across the globe.
