The Sea is All I Know

Originally from the West Coast, William Lord grew up in Oregon in the 70's, with Joni Mitchell, The Rolling Stones, Miles Davis, and Elton John as early musical influences.

As a teenager, relocated to the East Coast, Lord's music tastes moved toward 80's hard rock and eventually to the grunge sound of the 90's. While in high school, Lord was a member of a few fleeting hard rock bands, but hung up the guitar after his college years to climb the corporate ladder in the publishing industry.

In 2009, Lord left the corporate world forever, and dusted off the old Washburn acoustic that had been sitting in its case for nearly a dozen years.

Now dedicated to music, mostly American folk and rock, Lord was inspired to write, perform, and record his first single after seeing a clip from the forthcoming film The Sea is All I Know.

Now living in New York City, Lord is working on his first full-length album.
