He started writing songs in the classic style of his idols after moving to New York City. In 2004, he founded both the Brooklyn Country Music Festival to showcase local songwriters and the CasHank Hootenanny Jamboree to keep the music of country music's golden age burning brightly. Battles also teaches songwriting at The Jalopy School of Music

Dig Deeper with Willie West and the Sweet Divines!
Saturday, February 26 at 9:00pm
Location Southpaw
125 Fifth Avenue
Brooklyn, NY
DJ Honky & Mr. Robinson present: Dig Deeper @ Southpaw with Willie West! First Ever NYC Show!
Tickets available on Ticketweb: http://tinyurl.com/west-digdeeper
$10 adv / $15 doors
...PLEASE NOTE EARLY START TIME! Willie West will be on stage at 10:30pm!
Willie West is why we started Dig Deeper. An artist who - back in the 1960s and 1970s recorded a stack of incredible records - but had the misfortune to be released on labels which couldn't or didn't promote them, in Willie's case because they all ended up folding. Only with the passage of time can we rewrite the history of soul music and find those records which were great musically - not those which happened to have the most marketing dollars behind them.
February 26's Dig Deeper at Southpaw will be New Orleans soul legend Willie West's very first show ever in NYC performing his own music. His first should have been some 40 years ago at the Apollo Theatre - but somehow, Lee Dorsey stayed on stage (with Willie's band!) a little too long, and New York never got to hear a note. Willie was back in New York in the late 1970s lending vocals to the Meters, playing some of their classic material at an outdoor festival - but not a note of his own.
Willie West has given us an incredible legacy of soul - from the blazing R&B of "Willie knows how", to a seemingly endless list of aching deep soul ballads like "Don't be ashamed to cry", to the Allen Toussaint-arranged & produced acoustic funk bomb "Fairchild" which fairly drips with the echoes of New Orleans (and likely features the Meters as the uncredited session musicians).
Dig Deeper is ecstatic to present Willie West's first show in NYC, backed by the Sweet Divines, who will also be opening the night with their own set.
Rough schedule:
- 9pm Doors
- 9:30pm Sweet Divines
- DJ Honky, Mr. Robinson spin 45s
- 10:30pm Willie West!
- rest of the night - DJ Honky, Mr. Robinson DJ for the dancefloor!
