About

If fifty is considered the new forty, then Guilty Williams is the new eighteen. From a high dose ingestion of half a century of pop/unpopular music, here comes some once young blood. Guilty Williams is not a pioneer, nor a purist. This table is set for songwriting: pens, pencils, pads, scribbled lines on torn newspaper, field recordings of hummed bass lines, goosebump-inducing melody discoveries on buses, that snap out of sleep at 1:57am to jump out of bed grab the guitar and sit in the dark kitchen strumming the melody you had just dreamed. 

This is a deep dive into unscrambling the puzzle pieces of classic song structure, as well as allowing a soundscape to breathe and define its own shape. These songs are the result of a leap of faith into the creative act, the audacity of ideas, where something new exists today that didn’t yesterday. This music used to belong to Guilty Williams, now it belongs to you. 

Some songs take long. The best ones take less. But there is no limit to where the songs take us.

Guilty Williams is now.
