What Would Willy Listen To? | Stardew Valley Song Suggestions
Updated: Aug 10
“A true angler has respect for the water... don't you forget that.”
— Willy
The Stardew Valley soundtrack is undeniably amazing. However, have you ever thought about what type of music Willy might enjoy? We're intrigued as well, so we've put together a list of music genres, artists, and a few songs that would likely be the kind of music the character would listen to.
Meet Willy, The Fisher of Stardew Valley

Let’s meet Willy, the amiable angler of Stardew Valley. Willy is not just your average angler. He grew up traversing the Fern Islands, and now, he is settled in the picturesque south of Pelican Town on The Beach. Willy runs a quaint shop selling fishing supplies and bait to fellow villagers.
His shop is a daily hub of activity, but on Saturdays, if the weather allows, Willy takes a break to indulge in his passion for fishing.
Did you know that Willy's shirt can be tailored with 1 Cloth and 1 Dish O' The Sea to create the Shirt O' The Sea?
What Music Would Willy Listen To?
As the town’s resident fisherman, Willy spends most of his days surrounded by the ocean, and his taste in music would probably be just as laid-back, weathered and salt-of-the-earth as he is.
From Otis Redding’s soulful “Sitting on the Dock of the Bay” to Bruce Springsteen’s anthemic “The River,” Willy’s curated playlist reflects the essence of the ocean and fishing. Join us on a musical journey that encapsulates the spirit of Stardew Valley through Willy’s discerning and evocative music preferences.
