Will Keating can usually be found singing with a Falmouth based male vocal group known as The Oggymen .

Will combines Harry's songs with traditional Cornish and Celtic folk songs and has received accolades from far and wide.

Will released his eagerly anticipated first solo album on November 2nd 2017 to great acclaim. The album celebrates the song writing of Harry Glasson and includes two live tracks recorded at Will's sell out Cornish Folk Concert held in the historic St Senara's Church, Zennor. Special guests are also featured, including a 53 piece Cornish primary school girls choir, award winning banjo player John Dowling, The Oggymen, and the fabulous Helston Town Band.
