Boston area native Will Dailey released his CBS Records debut, Back Flipping Forward in November, 2007, and began receiving national attention almost immediately when songs from that album began appearing in numerous national television programs. Within one week of the album’s release, Will was featured in an on-camera performance on CSI:NY, singing his single “Rise” in one of the show’s pivotal and highly dramatic

Will’s music has also been featured on CBS programs "CSI Las Vegas”, “CSI Miami”, “NCIS”, “Kid Nation”, “Jericho”, “Young and the Restless”, and MTV’s “The Hills. He is also the recent recipient of the Boston Music Award for Best Male Singer Songwriter.

The songs on Back Flipping Forward were written over a three-year span, inspired by the people he encountered and the places he stumbled upon while playing countless shows on a series of rambling cross-country tours. Tracks such as the lovely melodic opener “Boom Boom,” the infectious pop-rocker “Bi Polar Baby,” the anthemic “Rise” and the gorgeous Appalachian folk closer, “Dear Grace,” a number usually done a cappella during Dailey’s live shows, reflect his eclectic influences, from Tom Waits to early Rod Stewart.

In one of the album’s strongest lyrical passages, at the conclusion of “Rise,” Dailey sings, “When I grow up/I hope I get the hang of this/I bleed from 6 strings/I let the truth fall from my lips.”

The collection conveys a sound that is fresh and contemporary. And Dailey is a force to be reckoned with in the live concert realm. As one reviewer recently wrote, “With his fluid arrangements, breathtaking vocals and strong melodies, he takes listeners on a beautiful journey filled with emotional layers.

Will Dailey is in the midst of a series of new recording projects that will result in numerous releases from the artist in the coming year. (-) collapse
