IT'S nice to be nice, and even nicer when sung by Willy Porter.

The Wisconsin singer/songwriter is touring the UK with his latest album, Human Kindness and stops off next week in Milverton.

The inspiration behind the music comes from an incident where Porter saw a man pulling a woman out of the path of a bus. That amazing act made him think about the nature of human kindness and why people care about other people.

Human Kindness encompasses more than the outstanding musicianship audiences and critics have come to expect from this indie-artist. It is also a call to make a positive impact in our own communities.

The album sets Porter’s blistering guitar work against a big studio sound on a stunning book of songs that explore themes about connection, compassion, and the human journey.
