Brilliant American singer / songwriter Will Dailey is easily one of the best interviews We Talk Music has conducted in 2023. Philosophical, thoughtful, and incredibly well spoken, Will Dailey doesn’t just give the standard answers to questions, he absorbs what you ask and returns it in kind.

This though is no surprise to anyone familiar with his art, as he approaches it with the same care, working hard at his job to create a special moment for listeners of his music.

No better example of this attitude exists than his current project, an ingenious idea that showcases his innovative, unique mind and style. It’s called the $10 Song, and it’s a chance for each individual who listens to the the tune to have their own experience that will never be repeated or forgotten when they listen to the aptly titled “Cover of Clouds”.

As described on his own website, every night it will be waiting on the merch table, in an antique discman with a pair of headphones waiting for you. Anyone at the show can come to the merch table and offer whatever you like ($10 or 10 cents) and take the discman, headphones and listen for 15 minutes, before or after the show. This will be the only place and time to hear it.

So check out this podcast to learn more about the song, the idea, and the man. You definitely won’t regret it. You may not be fortunate enough to catch Will Dailey on this limited 18 city tour, but you do have a chance to take a peek inside his mind, and that’s a trip worth taking.
