Willow

Multiple bands share the name Willow: 1. Willow was a four piece instrumental group from Newnan, GA. Kyle Coleman-Drums/Fast Driving Matt McClellan-Bass/Keys/Jingle Bells Tanner Merritt-Guitar/Funny Faces Rob Sepanski-Mandolin/Violin/Noise 2. Willow is an indie rock band from Belgium. Starting in 2007, Willow wants to find the right balance between experimental and poppy. This results into strong, melodic and dynamic rocksongs with many hooks. 3. Willow is a self-taught singer/songwriter, who, in 1992 put down her Bible and picked up a pawn shop guitar. Three chords later, the songs came flowing out. Judging from the fact that she had no subsequent musical experience, one could say she's a bit of a preternatural chanteuse. Like post-Christian rocker contemporaries, Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson, Willow's papa is a preacher man and prior to her fateful leap, she was an enrollee at Multnomah School of the Bible in Portland Oregon. The result of her departure from conservative religion...her musical renderings are of an evolution of a spiritual nature - an earthly, poetic dance in the dark. For those familiar with the fire and brimstone of artist Nick Cave, Willow may be the polar sweet angel of darkness, redemption and desire. 4. Willow was a rock-band from The Hague, The Netherlands. The band was formed by Marlein Heskes-Duarte and Rui Duarte. They've had multiple guitar players in the 6 years they made music. The music also changed everytime a new guitar player entered the band. Started out as an alternative rock band, they soon changed their sound to a more punk-rock sound, and in the last year added a nu-metal vibe to their sound. Willow had some succes in their hometown and surroundings, having played more than a 100 shows, including the Paard van Troje, Plein Open festival, HOT festival and recorded a videoclip in the local tv-studio "TV West" for the song Spinning Around. The Duarte's have recently started a new band called Man-Made Madness, which also includes ex-Willow guitar-player Jordy Licht.
