Hayward Williams @ Paris

On his way to Gelsenkirchen, Germany, to encourage the U.S. soccer team who will play against Czech Republic, Hayward Williams stopped by Paris for a short but promising performance.

Williams is a young singer-songwriter from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who hides behind glasses and long hair singing quiet and introspective stories. He is young but he is comfortable on stage like if he had experienced years of travelling in little clubs and smoky bars all around the Midwest. His debut record Uphill/Downhill can be found here on cdbaby.

Hayward Williams was the support guest of Vince Bell, Texas, in La Pomme d’Eve during the most awaited monthly Acoustic in Paris evening. Vince Bell did a no surprise show, beginning with songs that make him famous after been covered by others like Lyle Lovett (I've Had Enough) or Nanci Griffith (Woman of the Phoenix).

Next Acoustic In Paris "rendez-vous" will be with Eric Andersen from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Wednesday July 12th. More information here: http://www.acousticinparis.com/
