about

"Seven years of bad luck, seven years of pain
Seven years until I'm back on the streets again…'

Does Wily Bo finally get his comeuppance?

Another tale and drunken fable from Wily Bo Walker's cinematic world of VoodooVille, a landscape which delivers its stories of love, betrayal, death, murder, and all those other Southern gothic, voodoo blues, swamp’n’stomp myths, in film noir tropes…

Welcome to VoodooVille!

"You can turn the lights out on me…"

Available as Hi Res Audio 24Bit 96khz FLAC or WAV download as well as regular MP3 etc
