About Me

my name is will. i've been writing songs since i was thirteen (i'm now twenty-one). i write mostly for myself; however a few people have taken interest so i thought i'd upload some of what i've recorded in the last few years. quality varies from track to track because of my lack of resources and skill. any comments are appreciated.
