William Elliott Whitmore naturally bridges the Americana music scene which embraces his sound and the Midwestern DIY rock movement which holds him as one of their own. With a timeless and classic songwriting and mastery of the acoustic guitar and banjo fully evident on his previous albums, Whitmore took a step in a new direction by putting the songs into full arrangements and a band context for the first time. The results are a more expansive, cultivated sound, without losing any of the palpable soul that has garnered the 30 year old such critical acclaim. He has toured with a roster as wide and varied as Converge to Lucero-he’s played hardcore and punk festivals and bluegrass festivals. Whitmore is a growing, rare artist in American music.

“Whitmore’s baritone is a magnificent, even frightening instrument, impossibly thick and husky, deep and somber in a defiantly ageless manner”- Slant Magazine
