New Zealand Artist Marlon Williams Makes Beauty Out of Agony

Soundcheck | Feb 22, 2018

New Zealand singer/songwriter Marlon Williams has a voice like butter which can be charming and flirty as in the timeless crooner soon-to-be-classic, “Vampire Again,” or which can convey despair and longing, see his duet with Aldous Harding - "Nobody Gets What They Want Anymore." After his recent breakup from musician Aldous Harding, complicated torrents of feeling poured out in song, all delivered in a honey-smooth voice that accepts heartbreak and cultivates its beauty. Williams new record, Make Way For Love is out now, and he’s here to play songs from it for us, in-studio.
