Vandaveer's Music is Kind of Beautiful, Kind of Haunting

Bruce Winter

Alt-folk band Vandaveer is out on tour promoting their new album, Oh, Willie, Please... Before their Shank Hall show, Rose Guerin, Mark Charles Heidinger and Tom Hnatow stopped by WUWM to chat with Bruce Winter and perform a couple of songs.

The band originally started as "a haphazard solo project" that took on new forms and shapes as it went along. Founder Mark Heidinger sees each record as a new chapter for the band. "It's a big family of friends making records together."

They performed murder ballads Pretty Polly and Down In The Willow Glen in WUWM's Performance Studio.
