JP Williams is a soulful-singing songwriter who’s making his way in Nashville after years earning his supper (and his stripes) on the road.
JP’s distinct vocals and original music have scored him bookings everywhere from the Kennedy Center in Washington DC to colleges throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern US. He’s shared bills with the wide-ranging likes of Jo Dee Messina, Bruce Hornsby, Charlie Daniels, T. Graham Brown, Wet Willie, Marshall Tucker and Ricky Skaggs.
Today, JP’s focus is on Nashville, where he spends his days songwriting and evenings playing popular Music City venues such as The Bluebird and Douglas Corner.
Though blind since age 10, JP writes and sings with incredible insight and clarity. He’s thankful for the downs and the ups, ‘cause—when you’re a songwriter and an artist—it’s all material.
JP’s ‘t-shirt-and-jeans’ groove blends memorable melodies and lyrics about the human experience to create songs that pierce the heart, lift the spirit and open the mind. And he sings ‘em like he means it—because he does. JP’s just about as genuine and approachable an artist as you can find.
Take a listen—and see for yourself. JP may not have sight, but he’s got great vision.
