Marlon Williams

Description

DETECT THE FIRST ALBUM OF THE NEW ZEALAND STAR WITH AN EXCEPTIONAL VOICE AND SUBLIME SONGS BETWEEN COUNTRY, ROCK, AND BLUES. MARLON WILLIAMS grew up in New Zealand and sang in the Christchurch Cathedral choir before his father, a Maori punk singer, introduced him to country music. His first band, The Unfaithful Ways, allowed him to gain recognition in his country and tour with Justin Townes Earle when he was only 17. The singer began his solo career in 2012 and moved to Melbourne in 2013 to start his project under the name of MARLON WILLIAMS. He quickly became popular within the local scene and soon gained a national audience. He will present his self-titled debut album on February 19. With his exceptionally versatile and evocative voice, WILLIAMS truly embodies his songs on a confident and diverse debut album, like "Dark Child," a ballad that is both dark and bright, or "Hello Miss Lonesome," where the young man's voice soars over a bluegrass guitar tune. The young MARLON WILLIAMS is, in fact, already a young giant of alternative country.
