Will breaks that 4th wall and comes off the stage to directly interact with his audience while playing. He makes a real connection— not just with his music, but with his energy and genuineness. Go see a show and you’ll leave with a personal experience. His music is dynamic, wonderfully balanced and comfortably accessible no matter what your music palette is.
