This Boston-area tunesmith has been compared to every singer-songwriter under the sun, so here's one more addition to the ranks: Francis Dunnery with a hangover. OK, now it's your turn to find a doppelganger for the winsome, smoke-voiced Diehl.
Reviews/Press "Diehl's been compared to soft rock and acoustic artists like Jimmy Buffet, The Replacements, REM, and The Eagles." -The Day, New London, CT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "When I first heard this artist from Boston I was blown away..." - Americana Roots Radio -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "SOLITUDE, reflection... honesty was how American acoustic folk-rock singer and songwriter Will Diehl made his mark in this album... Known as a prolific writer, Diehl has also penned over a thousand songs that deal with love, relationships, environmental and social issues... heavily influenced by styles and ideas prevalent in latter-day New York City..." -The Star (Malaysia) "This is beautiful. A simple vocal and guitar number with harmonica lines here and there. Reminds me of the Beatles' "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away." " (review of "She Carried a Magic Lantern" -Shawn Rhodes (radio broadcaster at NY radio WBAI 99.5 FM) "He's spent this year touring the country to promote his recently released solo CD, "i am free", and now he's bringing it all back home. Diehl's stripped-down acoustic style is reminiscent of the late Jim Croce; his lyrics more often than not deal with the ambiguities presented by life and love... one thing's for certain: Will Diehl is the real deal." -Reno News and Review "With the release of his new solo CD, titled appropriately enough, "i am free", ... Will Diehl has revitalized his career as a solo acoustic performer. The ... guitarist and singer has returned to a stripped down sound featuring raw acoustic elements, earthy voicing and occasional harmonica play, all of which serve as the unobtrusive supporting cast to the lyrical qualities of his songwriting talents." -North Lake Tahoe Bonanza Newspaper
