WILLIS didn’t blow up overnight — they built something lasting. Formed in Florence, Alabama and now based in Nashville, the band began in 2016 as five childhood friends making music in a bedroom. Nearly a decade later, they’ve earned over 350 million streams, an RIAA Platinum record, and a fully sold-out national tour in 2024.

Their viral hit “I Think I Like When It Rains” topped TikTok’s U.S. chart in 2023 and stayed on the Viral 50 from 2022–2025. WILLIS made their name onstage — fans in Locals Only tees, singing every word like they’ve been there since day one. What started as a quiet DIY project is now a full-on live experience. With the Locals EP series and 2024 debut album I Can’t Thank You Enough, they’ve crafted a sound that’s warm, rhythmic, and emotionally direct. It’s indie rock that sticks — nostalgic but fresh, and built to last.

We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
