From Willie's Wikipedia Page:

He played with the Lost, the Bagatelle and the Grass Menagerie before becoming a member of the Velvet Underground in late 1971, joining fellow Grass Menagerie alumni Doug Yule and Walter Powers and replacing Sterling Morrison, who had gone off to pursue an academic career.

With the Velvet Underground, Alexander toured England, Scotland and the Netherlands in support of then-current album Loaded. After completing the tour on November 21, 1971, in Groningen, the band planned to start recording a new album, but band manager Steve Sesnick sent all of the band but Yule home, presumably to retain maximum control of the product (the resulting album was Squeeze, released in 1973) and effectively ending Alexander's time with the band.

After leaving the Velvet Underground, he enjoyed a checkered career, both solo and with his Boom Boom Band, that lasts to this day. In-between, Alexander teamed up with Powers to tour France in 1982 for French punk record label New Rose Records, in 1987 opening for Dramarama and in 2006 for a tour with the legendary Boom Boom band.

Alexander's 1975 single "Kerouac" was covered by Tim Presley on the album The Wink (Drag City, 2016) and his 1980 single "Gin" was covered by Luna on their covers album A Sentimental Education (Double Feature, 2017).

In addition to his storied music career, in 1994, Willie narrated a local film entitled Middle Street made by fellow Gloucester native, independent filmmaker Henry Ferrini. Willie has also contributed many songs to the soundtracks for Henry's other films.

Born and raised in New Orleans' 13th Ward, Henri Smith grew up inside the music — in a neighborhood thick with musicians, where names like the Neville Brothers, Fats Domino, Dave Bartholomew, and Papa French were simply part of the air. He carried that inheritance into a long career as a beloved voice on WWOZ, New Orleans' legendary jazz station, and as a performer and emcee at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.

Then Hurricane Katrina took his home, and the storm that scattered so much of New Orleans carried Henri north — to Cape Ann, where he rebuilt his life and his music. Today he's our neighbor, and his songbook of jazz, blues, Creole, and Cajun is a living thread between two communities that both understand resilience.

For this performance Henri brings his Ensemble, an all-star lineup carrying the New Orleans tradition forward. Expect a warm, joyful, deeply soulful evening — standards and second-line spirit, ballads and barrelhouse, the sound of a city that turns hard times into celebration.
