Willie J Healey: “When I was dropped I remember thinking, ‘You idiots – I’m the next Paul McCartney'”

Willie J Healey’s 2017 debut album came out via major label Columbia Records (home of Adele, Tyler, The Creator, Arcade Fire) and was inspired by people walking their dogs in the park opposite his flat. It was swiftly followed by the Elliott Smith influenced ‘666 Kill’ EP –released via former Maccabee Felix White’s YALA!
