The current home of Slick Willy

We are Slick Willy

Thank you for checking us out.... now for a little about us.

     Here is a little bit about the band... Slick Willy is a punk rock band from Sonoma County in Northern California. Before Slick Willy came to be in late 2004, there were 3 pre-Slick Willy bands: Open and Shut Case, Slick Willy, and Patiently Pursued. When those 3 bands came crashing down the old time friends Jason and Jon decided to get together with a few of their friends, Brian and Kyle. The 4 of them shared an undeniable love for music and a desire to make the best music possible modeling after their favorite bands which are: Mest, Simple Plan, New Found Glory, Hit The Lights, Fall Out Boy, Never Heard of It, Green Day, MxPx, Amber Pacific, and Sugarcult.
    When these 4 started playing they knew there was immediately chemistry. Up through 2005 the 4 of them put together their debut cd, The Finer Points, which featured fan favorites "Differences" and "Letter." This cd was a 7 track debut album that supplied an upbeat and energizing sound that attracted many fans to this newly formed quartet. In late 2005 Slick Willy added Joel to the band for a boost in vocals. This was the best move for both Joel and the band, the vocals Joel supplied where just what the band needed to take them to the next level. After several months of intese studio time the quintet released their 2nd cd entitled When the Lights Go Out, which showed a much more mature and polished sound. This album was introduced with the first single "Got 2 Girlfriends" then heartfelt fan favorite "Jen." The success of this album led to many oppurtunities for the band such as opening for groups such as Cartel, Mest, Allister, and The Primetime Heroes.
    Now the band is currently working on their 3rd album, not yet titled, which is projected to be released summer of 07. Now that Slick Willy has realized their potential as an energetic group with catchy melodies, upbeat music, and incredible chemisty they are sure to continue to amaze us with outstanding music for years to come.

So take some time and read about us, I am sure we won't dissapoint. Well I guess I will start things off then...
Hi, I'm Joel. I play guitar and sing in Slick Willy. I am 23 years old and just recently got my bachelors in communications from Dominican in San Rafael. I am also engaged to the most beautiful girl in the world, Jamie. She is my rock. I currently work for Comcast, now looking for a new job with degree. I was born and raised here is good old Marin slammin jammin county. My favorite food would have to be Spaghetti and Meatballs. Favorite movie is Anchorman. And one weird thing about me is that I have to close my eyes while brushing my teeth. Thanks for reading, see ya later!

Hey, I'm Jon and I play the bass in Slick Willy. I am 22 years old. I go to College of Marin, where I am taking GE classes becuase I really dont know what I want to study. But I do have an awesome job. I work for Mercedes where I get to work on cars all day. Its pretty sweet. I am single, so ladies.... I'm ready to mingle! Ok, now I probably just lost all hope for getting a date. But anyways, I am fun loving, love puppies and long walks on the beach, and I am a sucker for knee high boots. My favorite food is cheetos, I cannot go a day without them. My favorite movie is Cool Runnings and one final oddball thing about me is when i was a senior in high school I was a model in one of those GQ competitions and came in 2nd. I still think I should have won but thats another story. Thanks, I hope I amused you.

Hey everyone, I'm Jason and I play drums in Slick Willy. I am 21 years old, the baby of the group. I go to SRJC and am a pre-med student and I am transferring soon to southern cali. Yea its hard to believe that one day I will be taking care of and fixing people. Right now I work at a floor store where I rip out and install new floors in building, its fun but hard. And jokingly according to the guys I must be a real man for being down on my knees all day. HA HA! But seriously, I love women and women love me, well they do once in a while at least. I am single too, so ladies don't be shy. I love just having a good time with the friends no matter what it is, so I think I can be considered a pretty personable guy. Well as for my favorites... my favorite move is most definitely Varsity Blues. Favorite food is probably sushi and pizza. And one strange fact about me is when I play during a show I always go commando, its just more free that way. I hope everyone enjoyed my info, thanks for reading it. Later!

HI, my name is Kyle and I am a guitarist for Slick Willy. I am 23, and I don't go to school because I hated school. But I do have a cool job, I work full time at my dad's music store where I get to listen to music all day and sell a few cd's on top of it. My girlfriend Lexi also works with me, so that is awesome. I also own 4 motorcycles and 3 cars, so that is a little hobby of mine that I totally enjoy working on them. When it comes to favorite food my all time favorite is any kind of chinese food, god I love that stuff. My favorite movie is the Back To The Future movies, the first 2 more so than the 3rd but I still love the trilogy. Doc Brown is badass. I love his hair. One weird thing about me is that I once went 3 weeks without shaving or showering as part of a bet, and lets just say I won but I stunk and looked homeless. See that wasn't too bad now was it. Thanks for reading everyone. Ciao.

Hows it going? My name is Brian and I am a guitarist and singer in Slick Willy. I am 22 years old and am a student at SFSU studying to become an english teacher. I am originally from Tucson, AZ but moved to Marin county in 1996. I love to go dirtbiking with my brothers and also enjoy an occasional day out surfing with Jason and Kyle. I luckily don't have to work while I am in school. Thank you mom and dad, haha. So in my free time I am always doing something whether its working on m music or just out there having a good time. I am now single too for the first time in 3 years. So its a little different out there for me, but its fun so if any girls wanna help me get my feet wet, no complaints coming from me. My most favorite food is of course corn beef and cabbage. I love St. Patricks Day just for that and of course because I am 75% Irish. My favorite movie would probably be Oceans Eleven, now that was some cleverness. And one crazy thing about me is when I was 16 I got in a car accident and had to have 2 steel rods put in my left thigh because my bones were shattered. So I have 2 metal rods in my leg, its kind of cool actually and I got a knarly scar. Well I hope everyone enjoyed reading about me and the rest of the guys. Hopefully you know got a feel for who we are.
