So, how to start... Well im a brazilian dude so it's kind of hard to find some good juicy laid-back songs like yours. Your lyrics are pure poetry, i use to joke with my gf saying that people like you are the musicians of our generation. Therefore, for god sake, dont stop doing music, i know it's kind of selfish to say that cuz having a band is complicated, but dude you guys are like human patrimony... You guys are gonna explode real soon, believe my words, im showing it to as much people as i can in my country, just know that you have all my appreciation. Jah bless.
Well said man, well said.. I used to think our gen musician is fked up with auto tunes and weird samples or mumbling crap. But these.. this is hit me different...
My last grandparent passed away this morning. I had to get away and go for a walk. This was the first song that came on my pandora after I got the call. I just sat there on the curb and cried - didn't think I had any more tears left. Thought I cried them all out last night when I saw him for the last time. WILLIS, thank you. I don't know you guys but this song will forever live in my head when I think of my grandpa. I love you for that. 💚
I started listening to your music about 2 days ago and I have to say this is some of the best music I have listened to in a long while. There are so many songs that match the exact emotion I want in a song. Thank you for making these beautiful songs please keep the amazing work I won't ever stop listening.
@@normandegeorge6526 this is better and it’s not even close. Don’t get me wrong that song is pretty, but this songs a masterpiece. That song is a Monet painting, where as this one is the Sistine Chapel. Opinions though.
This song took the situation I'm in with the girl I like and read me like an open book. Kinda embarrassed to say it brought me to tears. Some good ish right here

this is actually really good. Aesthetically pleasing, a cry for love, and the title Ballad of the Basement. Im gonna go literature mode here or whatever but i think the title is somewhat an idea or representation to making songs in the basement and being an underrated indie band, I might be wrong so don't trust me completely xD. Really hope you guys get more recognition at least :)
I discovered your music like many others through, I think I like when it rains. But I absolutely fell in love with all of the locals albums. They all flow so well and have so much emotion and meaning. I can’t wait for locals 4. Peace x
The second I turned this song on, all my problems went away.. kinda far fetched but listen, sometimes we create problems that aren’t even there (we over think). This music is the type of music that tames the “beast” within us. Maybe I’m just over thinking again but who knows. Anyways, it’s my off day today.. it’s raining outside, I’m home with my two dogs drinking some coffee on the couch with this in the background. Maybe I should start a blog? Haha I’ve always wanted to. Much love from me to who ever sees this. Enjoy the rest of your day, and don’t forget to be great :)
I’m obsessed with your music. When I heard your song locals on Apple Music I for sure thought you would have like at least a couple hundred thousand subscribers/followers. I feel like I’m in a secret club lol when you guys blow up i want to be able to say “I was here first!!” 3/4/2021 -Anna
This song is under rated, I can imagine myself driving over the bridge as the sunsets behind the cotton candy colored clouds and just letting the wind play with my hair thinking about him.. and how hes doing up there and seeing how I'm doing since his passing.. Makes me think of my own love I lost from life's uncertainties.. but I will always cherish music as it's my soul medicine for me to push forward everyday ^^ Thank you Willis!!
I first listened to your music about 2 years ago. Recently a friend of mine posted a link to one of your songs and it threw me back in and reminded me how good y'all's music is. This song alone will forever bring me to tears. I love it so much, hope to see you guys live !
This song is very good, truly. I come back all the time, peaceful state of mind. it's great , I think should be on billboards man. imma keep up and visit the music, y'all are great.
I find it amazing how you and your band have such harmony, it's very descriptive in emotion, and i can feel each lyric. I slap this in my car all day every day, today was raining on my way to work, and i just had to slap "i think i like it when it rains" and you know what, i love it when it rains some slaps
This guy is really something.. i started listening to your song, “i think i like when it rains” 4 days ago and started looking for more from u. Very talented guy. I love your music.
I can't believe you're not more mainstream. This is the sound a lot of us need... there's jst something so visceral and authentic about the way this song makes me feel... its vulnerable and honest...and thats jst beautiful.
Such a beautiful song & perfect title for it. It all starts from the “ballad of the basement”, and as time moves forward so does life, people come & go & things change & as you begin to cherish you’re memories, you realize how bitter-sweet they are, sad that you can’t relive it, but happy you did. Creative, touching song.🤧🙏🏻
Hearts out to these guys,hope to see all of you thrive and continue to make music,there’s such a genuine and encouraging feel from the melodies that I can’t keep myself from listening to.Keep up the great work I’m rootin for ya.
damn you guys are a solid band, good songs, please stay together and keep making new music, this generation deserves more of this! Keep paving the way forward!
When I listen to your music I just feel like Im alone and out of this world. I hope one day you guys make it big and get the attention and audience you deserve. Please never stop making this awesome music. I cannot wait for what you have for the future.
Can’t believe there’s only this out. Would love to hear it live. Heck, I’d pay to hear this privately with a bottle of whiskey and memories to help pass me by. Love y’all, from the UK.
I just found these guys no longer than 2 months ago, and when I get to work, I put my headphones on, and I immediately put them on spotify and just let it play from beginning to end. It helps get me through a good chunk of work.
@jacobsifuentes1691 Hey! Can you please help me understand the lyrics first para "Did you feel that? The feel of a heart break. ......sitting close enough" Chorus " you have seen my best... Ready" Outro" that's cool" I want to understand the hidden meaning of this song. Please help me.
These guys are extremely underrated
They are!! I’m shocked that they don’t have more fans
these guys are near from fame
You're goddamn right
yes
that makes it even more amazing
the chills from that first drop
This song is criminally underrated
Indeed
Yuss
They give me that old school slow blues kinda feel like red clay strays does!

i just discovered them and i’m obsessed. they for sure have the most unique sound i’ve ever heard and i love it.
My new favorite band, criminally underrated and unknown and it hurts my soul.
that guitar sound hit the deepest of my heart so much

Really hope you guys get more recognition at least :)
this is one of the few songs that i've had on repeat for months now, thanks for creating such an amazing track
I'm glad that soundcloud recommended these guys. Their music has a vibe to it, that it makes me feel some sort of self-reflection. It's beautiful,.
Bro you guys make the best music I’ve ever heard. Please don’t give up, keep making music!!
This song is so beautiful and I can't help it but I cry almost every time I listen and it's beautiful. So glad this group and I found each other
I discovered your music like many others through, I think I like when it rains. But I absolutely fell in love with all of the locals albums. They all flow so well and have so much emotion and meaning. I can’t wait for locals 4. Peace x
I love this
none of them r a miss!!
Been listening for a year now, I loved the new 'Cranmango' single. Hope to see a Locals 4 in the near future....
Their song is like cozy rainy day in the middle of summer while reading book and chilling near the window.
