“It was such a pleasure to meet and interview Will over zoom for this podcast. Will was so generous with his time and his stories of making a career performing, composing and recording music were really relatable. Taking opportunities when they arise, being present in the music scene and turning up has led Will to have this wonderful career as a musician travelling the world and producing 9 CDs.  Having had the pleasure of seeing Will play live here in Adelaide made me understand his incredible talent and his personable down to earth way he communicates on stage and in person. Thank you Will for being on my podcast and we look forward to following your career and hopefully see you performing again in Adelaide.”
