Today, Nashville singer/songwriter Sam Williams has announced his debut album, Glasshouse Children, is arriving August 20th via Mercury Nashville. Pre-order Glasshouse Children HERE
Glasshouse Children is an introspective meditation on hurt and healing, growth and loss, and sin and redemption, but more than that, it’s a reckoning with fate and freewill and the family ties that bind us. Sam’s stunning, signature vocals are poured into ten cinematic tracks that showcase the lush sonic landscape of his vocal, delivered with honest lyricism, vulnerability and deep empathy.
Williams recorded the record primarily in Nashville with Jaren Johnston (The Cadillac Three, Keith Urban, Tim McGraw), and other producers such as 5 time GRAMMY-nominated producer Paul Moak (Joy Williams, Ashley Monroe), Sean McConnell, Bobby Holland and more. The record includes co-writes with notable songwriters such as Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys), Sean McConnell (Little Big Town, Christina Aguilera, Rascal Flatts), Justin Parker (Lana Del Ray, Dua Lipa) and Jaren Johnston. It also features collaborations with country music icon Dolly Parton on “Happy All the Time,” and the legendary Keith Urban who plays guitar on “Kids.”
Ahead of the release, today, Sam shares “Kids (Feat. Keith Urban).” Of the song, Williams says “Kids is a reflection of the monotonous negativity that comes with staying in the same town your entire life. While you want to get out, you still feel like a child, so you stay and continue the cycle.” “Kids” was written by Hank Compton, Boots Ottestad (Robbie Williams, Tim McGraw) and Eric Arejes (Tim McGraw, Thompson Square, Rachel Wammack) and produced by Jaren Johnston (Keith Urban, Thomas Rhett). Listen to “Kids (Feat. Keith Urban)” now HERE.
To date, Sam has shared five songs as a taste of what’s to come from Glasshouse Children — “Kids (Feat. Keith Urban)” was preceded by “10-4,” “Can’t Fool Your Own Blood,” “SHUTEYE” and “The World: Alone,” a song he released in honor of his late sister Katie Williams’ 28th birthday.
