Karl S Williams is excited to share his latest musical creation, ‘Blood To Give’. 

Produced and recorded by Matt Redlich (Holy Holy / Ball Park Music / Husky / Emma Louise), the track delivers as another taste of Karl S Williams’ exploration and passion for The Blues. “I was very happy to finally work with Matt, a producer who I have long admired,” says Karl. “He imagined a perfect sonic landscape for the song to exist within.”

Talking about the track, Karl explains “Life is hard and unkind to all of us at times, I guess I went digging for suitable metaphors for that experience. In some ways the song is also an address to an industry wherein the sensitive are shepherded inexorably toward the precipice.”

As a creative force striving towards honest, relatable blues that has the power to heal, Karl S Williams aims for his music to strike a chord with those who listen. With ‘Blood To Give’, Karl describes that “There is no malice or self-pity. It is to be played loudly and I hope that if people sing and dance along they will find that their burden is made lighter for a little while.”

Chief Running Water Sings The Blues

Karl S. Williams has a one-of-a-kind voice that sounds about a thousand years old. His songs are steeped in blues, gospel and old time music with poetic sensibilities that call to mind the classic singer-songwriters of yesteryear.

Karl proudly traces his bloodlines to the Butchulla and Darug people of Australia’s First Nations. This deep connection to the landscape of his homeland pervades his work and infuses it with a spirituality that is older than time.
