Will Dailey started playing his wee guitar through a wee amp—bought with money from his piggy-bank savings—at age twelve. He played his first pub show at 16, and has been playing theaters, clubs, living-rooms, and local drinking establishments across the country ever since. Dailey is dedicated to the musician’s lifestyle, saying, “It is all I have ever done and all I will ever do.”

It is well documented that Dailey sold his little red Civic to pay for the release of his debut album, aptly named Goodbyeredbullet. With no money left over for touring, Dailey relied on the support of friends, family, fans, and the generous hearts of the world to help him get his music out to audiences around the U.S. He says of his life on the road, “I was making a living. Not by Rolling Stone standards, but it was certainly a success to be doing what I wanted.” Dailey became a testament to the fact that DIY artists can, and do, succeed.

On his own, without the backing of a major label, Will amassed a mailing list of over 25,000 and developed street teams not only around the States, but in Brazil, Canada, and reaching as far as Australia. His songs have appeared in shows like, “Surface”, GQ’s 2003 Awards show for segments honoring Peter Jackson (Lord OfThe Rings) & Johnny Depp, VH1 Fashion Awards shows, MTV Real World’s Battle of the Sexes (credits theme), MTV spring break commercials & other Viacom commercials
