Heartwood Presents: Nicholas Edward Williams

From 2007 to 2018, Williams performed under the folk-soul moniker “Whetherman”. During those years, he independently released eight full-length albums while continuously touring across the US, as well as throughout the UK and Western Europe. Williams was also afforded opportunities to open for acclaimed acts such as Taj Mahal and The Wood Brothers. He owes his success to being exposed to roots and string music early on, forever shaping his career.

“I essentially ‘grew up’ as a musician at a very special place called The Spirit of Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL. I had the pleasure of performing at roots music festivals there since 2010, and that’s where I was first exposed to Bluegrass, Old Time and Traditional Folk Music.”
