Wily Bo Walker has created a world for his music, stories, film storyboards and artistic vision in the cinematic, film noir landscape of VoodooVille…

‘Moon Over Indigo’, Wily Bo’s release from 2015, contains an opium den of tales and characters highlighted on its album cover by the visionary illustrator and artist Zhana D’Arte. Schizophrenic tales of a man and his demons…

The double album, ‘The Roads We Ride’, a film noir storyboard and its soundtrack by Wily Bo & E D Brayshaw, follows the tales of three characters and the paths and choices they make. The beautiful artwork, again by Zhana D’Arte, illustrates elements of their fateful journeys. Three people, two paths, one story…

‘Ain’t No Man a Good Man’ is an album collaboration with Danny Flam and a host of friends, artists and musicians from both sides of the Atlantic with yet another beautifully illustrated cover by Zhana D’Arte. Film noir stories, garnished with a touch of evil, weave their way through a world where Ava Gardner & Robert Mitchum would feel at home. Sleaze, sex, murder & mayhem. Cinematic tales, horn driven grooves and voodoo blues…

A companion album to ‘Ain’t No Man a Good Man’, ‘Tales of the Mescal Canyon Troubadours’ (aka ‘Troubadour Jams’), featuring more tales and drunken fables from the master of story-telling was released in February 2021. ‘Tales of the Mescal Canyon Troubadours’ sees Wily Bo weave his cinematic stories and revisit songs from his back-catalog, retelling them in a whole new groovalicious, roof liftin’, funkin’ and rockin’ style…

2024/2025 sees Wily Bo producing the music and the soundtrack album for ‘The Rattlin Bone Theatre Show’ in Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio as well as a twin album release with E D Brayshaw; ‘Some People Kill for Passion’ / ‘Letters from the Blue Moon Motel’ which will also be produced in Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio

All roads lead to VoodooVille…
