Statesboro, Georgia-born, Cambridge, England-based guitarist singer and songwriter Brooks Williams, a leading light on the roots acoustic music scene, has over 33 recordings and has appeared at countless venues and festivals for over three decades.

From Celtic Connections to Cropredy, Glastonbury to Philadelphia, Kerville to Winnipeg, Costa del Folk to Shrewsbury, there’s very few stages Brooks Williams hasn’t played.

He moves effortlessly between country, blues and folk. WUMB-FM Boston names Williams one of their Top 100 All-Time Artists and he’s listed in the Top 100 Acoustic Guitarists.

RnR writes, Williams is a “guitarist in possession of rich vocal powers and a talent for lyrical imagery, his songs are imbued with uplifting generosity” (Read Full RnR Interview, Road Dog).

Brooks Williams, writes Fatea, is “quite simply one of the most unassuming, natural performers on the circuit, and his easy, relaxed manner conceals the greatest level of true expertise.” (READ MORE)

His collaborations with Aaron Catlow, Vera van Heeringen, Boo Hewerdine, Hans Theessink, Sloan Wainwright and the late, great Rab Noakes, to name but a few, are legendary.
