Willie MacCaulder

Pianist Willie MacCalder is exceptional. He plays rollicking, Boogie piano that easily challenges Johnnie Johnson for the top spot. Willie MacCalder covers a wide range of solo Blues and R&B styles, mixing traditional songs and originals, boogies and barrelhouse, singing in a laid back, weary-sounding Jerry Lee Lewis-style that suits his piano playing very well.

Willie’s trademark piano stylings of pounding the keys and driving the band have won him a number of ‘music poll awards’ and c ontribute greatly to the Powder Blues instantly identifiable sound!

As a solist or part of a band, Willie songs found on his album "Broken Down Piano" are audience participation songs that he put to good use and will having your audience doing the Boogie Woogie in no time!

Considered to be among Canada's finest Blues and Boogie style Pianists, Willie has performed and recorded with many of the greatest Blues musicians in the world, including John Hammond, Taj Mahal, Albert Collins, Otis Rush and James Cotton.
