The Little Willies is a band formed in 2003 that features Norah Jones on piano and vocals, Richard Julian on vocals, Jim Campilongo on guitar, Lee Alexander on bass, and Dan Rieser on drums.

The group formed around a love of country classics. Between members' regular gigs, they first played at New York Citys Living Room. The show led to a series of events, including a benefit concert for public radio station WFUV. The "loose-knit collective" found itself with a growing following. The Little Willies self-titled debut album has added to their popularity.

James Corbitt Morris (20 June 1907 12 July 1998) — better known as Jimmy Driftwood or Jimmie Driftwood; was a prolific United States folk songwriter and musician, most famous for his songs The Battle of New Orleans and Tennessee Stud.

  • Now talking about a new cover for an old classic. these young people have it down.

  • Johnny Cash!!!! But, this was fantastic live last night at the Bridge Benefit. Great set they did.

  • @zeppelindan500 A few days after I left that comment, I actually ended up making a station for the Little Willies on Pandora and some of Jones' solo work came up and I must say that I didn't mind it at all. I could have sworn that I had heard some song of hers that I hated, but it may have been a different artist that I was thinking of. I will look into that album though!

  • @badfinger848 I'm sorry you don't enjoy Norah Jones' solo work. Have you heard The Fall? It's her newest album, and it's a departure from her earlier music, very electric.

  • Personally, I prefer the instrumental version of this tune by Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed, but I like this one too!

    I really need to look into getting the Little Willies' album...Jim Campilongo's guitar work being on it makes it worth it all on its own, but they're all fantastic musicians. I'm still not big on Norah Jones' solo stuff though.

  • Best version of this Jim Driftwood tune I have hear to date. Strong work.

  • amazing album..

  • Danng!

  • pura magiaaa =D
