Ysanne Taylor c/o Gasparilla Music Festival

Will Quinlan plays Gasparilla Music Festival in Tampa, Florida on March 11, 2020.

On his latest single, “Blind Leads Blind (All the Light We Can’t See),” Tampa songwriter Will Quinlan continues to frolic through melancholy meditations about the quiet moments of self-doubt we experience on the lonely drive home.

The cut, Quinlan’s first bit of new music since a 2021 tune “Texarkana,” is an alternate take from a forthcoming solo album, Articles Of Redemption due next summer, and will please fans of Counting Crows and Jason Molina.

Expect Quinlan to play the tune, and hopefully tease more new stuff at this songwriter showcase with June Bunch and others at New World Brewery's music hall on Friday, Dec. 30.
