Since his 1998 full-length aptly titled Acoustic, singer/song writer Will Hoppey has performed his brand of coffeehouse folk-rock around and beyond his native of Sparrow Bush, NY. Occasionally accompanied by his backing band of Bill Ackerman (guitar), Lenny Hayden (guitar), Ken Decker (keyboard), Steven Belfiglio (bass), and Dennis Cotton (drums), Orchard Records would follow-up with 1999's Places and his third album, Lonely Hotel the following year. ~ Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
