Биография

"Patience is a virtue." Those words are tattooed across Coleman Williams' right arm. The lesson wasn't always so clear. As the great-grandson of Hank Williams Sr., grandson of Hank Williams Jr., and only son of Hank 3, Coleman spent years waging an internal battle with the expectations thrust upon him by his own lineage. Inspired to blaze his own trail, Coleman left town after high school and traveled across America, developing musical tastes that were as diverse as the country itself. Now back home in Nashville, he has developed his unique sound that fills Southern Circus. Local producer Jason Dietz, guitarist David Talley joined him, as did banjo player, Daniel Mason and drummer Carson Kehrer. All five musicians (along with fiddler Laura Beth Jewell and steel player, John Judkins who both appear on the record) came from different musical backgrounds, but they worked together to build something new. Just shy of his thirtieth birthday, Coleman Williams made his long-awaited debut with "Son of Sin," a single that was released in 2021 by IV and the Strange Band. Coleman now channels his love of the weird into Southern Circus which finds a balance between spectacle and spirit, melodies and muscle. It's the sound of a man honoring his family tree while planting his own garden. Southern Circus is Coleman's homecoming: an album that finds him not falling into a legacy, but earning it. www.facebook.com/ivsonofiii www.instagram.com/ivsonofiii www.twitter.com/ivsonofiii
