Brooks Williams Biography
Brooks Williams, from Statesboro, Georgia USA (the town made famous by country-blues legend Blind Willie McTell), tours like a hellhound is on his trail and creates a super-charged music that is electrifying and fighting-fit.
fRoots says of Williams, he "really rocks, stirring up soulful Americana, full-on blues and tasty rootsy grooves." Like drinking whiskey from a honey jar, you get both the sweet and the bite.
He's a great singer. In 2013 he was nominated ‘best male vocalist’ by the UK’s foremost roots-music mavens, Spiral Earth. AmericanaUK says, “he has a beautiful voice that you just melt into.” And he’s one helluva good guitar player, ranked in the “Top 100 Acoustic Guitarists.” The San Antonio Light says that Williams is a “fret monster who has to be seen to be believed!”
His songs are rooted in blues and old country (words like timeless, astute, archetypal just about cover it), but they are also alive with clearly-drawn ironic characters and they are rich in blues pathos.
Walking the line between blues and Americana, Brooks Williams has worked stages worldwide for over 25 years, amassing a staggering back-catalogue of songs, recordings and tales. With 28 CDs to his name,Williams has been called “Americana at its finest!”
