Will Stewart

Suffused with a quiet melancholia, Will Stewart’s ‘Slow Life’ is an easy rolling cocktail of Americana, folk rock and jangling guitar swagger that invites you to stretch out and soak up the sounds.

Will Stewart’s name may not yet be embedded in the wider collective consciousness of Americana, but this is a  welcome reminder of a smouldering talent charting an inexorable path to the recognition and acclaim he deserves.

Securing a  wider platform following its American release last year, Will Stewart’s solo debut offers up a solid set of classic styled guitar-driven country rock. A county seat is an administrative centre from which legislation for the region is handed down. Checking out this album should be a matter of policy.

Watch the video for Will Stewart’s ‘Sipsey’ – The title references a place in northwest AL called Sipsey Wilderness Preserve. I wanted to use that as a sort of visual/tangible anchor to otherwise vague/impressionistic lyrics. I also just like the way it sounds.
