Port St. Willow is the project of Nick Principe. He debut record Holiday made waves in the scene with its earnest tracks and heart-wrenching vocals. Tonight he hits the stage at DC9, and today’s song of the day is his track “Amawalk.” The song is a slow burner that sticks with you over repeated listens. Stretched out at over six minutes, Principe locks into a grove and his vocals shine through.

Port St. Willow plays tonight with Myrrh Myrrh at DC9. Tickets are $10.
