New CD Pre-Release Contest!

August 15th, 2011

album cover

It’s finally here, folks. August 29th is the release date! It’s been a long time in coming, but at last it’s right around the corner: “For the Glory of God”!

Check out the album page for information on how to pre-order the physical CD (or digital download if you prefer). You can also stream a few of the new songs right now – all of them will be available for download and streaming on August 29th.

“We’ve grown a lot in the past couple years, and our music and lyrics have grown too. This album stays true to our family harmony roots, while at the same time foraying into contemporary christian, worship, folk, blues/jazz, orchestral, and other epic goodness. Above all, the music is dedicated to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Sola Deo Gloria – For the Glory of God!”

To help launch the album, and to please our (few) but loving fans, we’re giving away a FREE autographed copy of the new album! Also, everyone who enters the contest will get a 20% off coupon for their purchase of the CD.

So here’s how the contest works:

Step 1

“Like” The Willi on facebook. If you’re already a fan, great! You’re ahead of the game.

Step 2

Tag The Willi in a public post. To tag us, type in the “@” symbol, and then start typing in “The Willi”. Facebook will autocomplete it for you, and you can just click our fan page.

The post needs to be public in order for us to count the submission – otherwise, we won’t be able to see it! To make a post public, click the lock icon, and choose “everyone”. All that does is allow that particular post to display on The Willi facebook page.

Don’t know what to say? Here’s something to get you started. “Win a free CD from The Willi – [insert personal comments here]” :)

Step 3

Oh wait, there is no step 3! Once we see your post, we will message you with the 20% off coupon codes. For the purpose of the contest, only one entry per facebook account will be counted (though you’re more than welcome to mention us as much as you want). On August 29th, the winner will be determined by random drawing. Should something catastrophic happen, like if the CD duplicating company goes out of business within the next couple weeks, we reserve the right to extend the release date and contest. :)

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

Have fun!

Studio Days

April 30th, 2011

Yep, we’re back in the studio again! That may be the reason for our absence on the blog lately…

Making a CD takes lots of work, lots of time, and lots of music practices, but we’re having a blast! It’s been great working with our friends at Windrush Productions again for our second project. We’re about halfway through the recording process before we get to take a break while our sound engineer mixes, and…well, engineers. :-)

~Nate, our “Mr. Bass Man”

~Walter, our main songwriter, singer and leader. Go, bro!

~One of my favorite places to be…playing the piano.

~Angie, putting down violin tracks in the ‘isolation chamber’ (also one of my favorite places to be :-) ).

~We’re blessed to have our friend and awesome drummer, Jeremy, join us for this project! Thank you so much, Jeremy!

Be looking for a release this summer – it’s going to be good. At least, we think so! :-D

~Kasie, for the Willi

The Willi at Fall Festivals

October 12th, 2010

For the past several weekends, TheWilli have kept busy playing at different fall festivals, concerts and churches. It’s been a blast! Check out our pictures from last week’s Fall Festival of Nations:

“Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.”

Warning: Rap Music Ahead!

September 23rd, 2010

For those of you who know me, you know that I really like rap music. This is an awesome new single from my favorite rapper, Lecrae.

(we even got Mom to listen to this song!)

Lecrae’s new album (Rehab) is coming out September 28th. I can’t wait!
