ARTIST PROFILE | Hans Williams
Born and raised in Vermont, independent singer-songwriter Hans Williams grew up listening to the likes of Al Green, Tracy Chapman, Steely Dan and James Brown – all favorites of his parents. After moving to New Orleans for school, he now calls the city home, continually finding inspiration from its deep-rooted musical scene. Crafting music as a form of personal catharsis, Hans channels his emotions into each composition, aiming to provide solace and resonance for others who connect with his work. With his signature raspy vocals that cut deep and a guitar always at the core of his production, his DIY-approach to indie-folk music has connected with audiences worldwide.
Amassing over 65 million streams to date, Hans Williams has found success with singles like “All Is Well,” “Checklist” and “Willows,” all racking up millions of streams and propelling the rising artist’s career. His sound has garnered attention from the likes of Billboard and Ones to Watch, while landing editorial support across streaming platforms.
Now with the arrival of his More Than One Way Home EP, Williams presents the full picture into his world with five new tracks, sharing with listeners the chronicles of leaning into the unfamiliar aspects of life and finding peace through that process.
Following the release of the EP, Williams and his band hit the road for his debut headline 26-date North American ‘More Than One Way Home’ tour. Kicked off on March 15th, the tour started in New Orleans – where Hans currently lives – before making its way across North America, stopping in major cities like Los Angeles, New York and Nashville, as well as his home state of Vermont. With 26 dates in total, The 'More Than One Way Home' tour was a successful debut headliner, with 90% of tickets sold out.
