 Influenced by everything from Nirvana and Taking Back Sunday to Bob Dylan and The Smiths, BeachBombSaints is the love child of 24 year-old singer/songwriter Willie Ramsey. Ramsey began posting songs/videos on YouTube (YouTube/willieramsey21) in the fall of 2008 and since then, has ranked up nearly 20,000 views. The appeal? “I sing about real things—coming from a broken home, being homeless, I could go on and on… Anyway, I think people pick up on the sincerity and honesty in my songs and feel they can relate in some way.”  Ramsey goes on to say, “When I first started posting videos, I had no clue what I was doing and still don’t in some ways [chuckles].I take the D.I.Y. mentality  to heart—I write, record, and mix my own music and videos; I’m just grateful so many people have listened to my music.”  Ramsey just put the final touches on his latest EP entitled “Death to the Dinosaur Thinkers!” “I would describe the record as lo-fi garbage with a touch of spit and shine,” says the unsigned indie songwriter. “This is without doubt my best record to date! You can catch the self-proclaimed ex-art student playing every Thursday and Sunday at Chicago’s Gallery Cabaret. When asked to describe his live shows, Ramsey puts it this way: “Punk rock in its purest form—sloppy, unprofessional, yet totally passionate and sincere…and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
