There's something for everyone, from virtuosic bluegrass, to non-Western sound worlds. William incorporates his jazz guitar background into an unconventional style of cello playing, delivering cellopickin' grooves and catchy hooks, alongside intimate melodies. 'Outstanding, a truly remarkable performance' (BBC Radio 3).
