Formed in 2008, the Rucksack Willies are a barn burning tour de force of old style country stomping with a solid injection of endlessly original songwriting from front-woman Angela Hilts. Playing around Ontario for the past three years, they have garnered a reputation for having one of the most energetic stage shows in the Golden Horseshoe and beyond. Currently the group is finishing its debut CD. Produced by Michael Eckert and Engineered and mixed by Reuben Ghose the CD has been painstakingly assembled and perfected to present the full force of the Willies’ live show. Featuring the likes of David Baxter, John Williams (clarinet), and Laura Bates, the record will surely not disappoint.
