Wisconsin USA’s Hayward Williams returns to Australia for the third time to release his fourth album nationally in March 2013. Joining him on guitars, vocals and drums for this tour will be Adelaide’s The Yearlings. Williams is known here and abroad for his Americana-soaked song-writing, his soaring tenor and warm and expressive musicianship.

Whether he’s in the wood-panelled bars of the American Midwest, city and country pubs around Australia, or small clubs across Europe, the result is always the same: the room halts, noises recede, and clocks slow. People forget where they were, and become aware only of where they are.
