TOP STORIES
With a background like that, it may not come as a surprise that music was a defining element in his upbringing. When he wasn’t on the road with his parents (tours that often took him as far as Japan and Sweden) he was playing along to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimi Hendrix when he was eight years old. By the time he attended Boston’s prestigious Berklee College of Music in 2001, he had begun to develop a reputation as both a prolific and mature songwriter, and, eased along by partnerships with a number of Grammy Award-winning writers, his distinct sound had begun to take shape.
One listen to “Sideways” or “All My Might,” two of the tracks on his upcoming release, reveals a myriad of distinct influences embedded within the funky R&B Mostly Piano-driven pop songs. Momentary shades of Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, Bruce Hornsby, and Prince rise through the rock tunes one after another, firmly anchoring the verses and choruses to the soul roots the band returns to time and time again. While living in Nashville, Will has been spending his fair share of time on Music Row writing constantly. He has been writing with many Nashville country and pop songwriters such as Dennis Matkosky, Rivers Rutherford, Barry Dean, Brett James, Michael Caruso, Eric Bazilian and others.
Fortified by the addition of a 4 to 5-piece backup band, Will Champlin is building a name for himself with a live show of surprising maturity. Infectious melodies and funky guitar are pushed along by a powerful rock bottom end. Over it all, Champlin’s voice calls out the words with an edge expressive beyond his years. He is also playing nearly every instrument on the tracks you are hearing, as well as every bit of the production.
Impressive in delivery and big on soul, Will Champlin is keen on connecting to fans through songs about love and loss, lust and desire. Says Champlin, “Those songs seem to touch people more. Because they’re true.”
