Bios:
Hans Williams is an independent singer-songwriter from
Norwich, Vermont. First releasing
music in third grade when
he would hand out CDs after school, Hans fell in love with
songwriting as a means of
finding comfort and relief. After uploading a couple of songs on
Spotify in high school,
Hans quickly amassed a strong community of listeners before graduating.
In 2020, Hans debuted
" Body on My Shoulders ," reflecting on his experience as a first
responder to a floormate’s suicide in the first few days of freshmen year at
Tulane University, which has since become a mutually therapeutic anthem for
Williams, the Tulane community, and beyond.
In February of 2022, Hans
released “All Is Well ,” a follow up to “Body On My Shoulders.” Hans
says of the release,
“writing ‘All Is Well’ felt like a natural extension to writing ‘Body on My
Shoulders.’ While releasing
‘Body on My Shoulders’ brought a great deal of relief, I still thought
about my experience more
than seemed normal and wasn’t always willing to open up to my
immediate community. Since
many of my friends had the same experience, it was hard to start
those conversations. I felt
like I was opening up someone else’s wound at the expense of closing my own.”
Often advocating for mental
health awareness, Williams’ had the honor of sharing how he has
coped with trauma through
his music at the annual Josselyn Center event in Chicago, Illinois in
November 2022. Josselyn
Center is a community mental health center, providing comprehensive care such
as therapy, psychiatry, support groups, and more.
To wrap up 2022, Hans
released "Willows ,” seeing the free-flowing confidence Hans has
developed in himself and
his music, just two days before selling out his debut headline show at Tipitina’s in New Orleans.
Fast forward to 2023, after
selling out his last headline show in New Orleans as a student at
Tipitina’s, and now a
graduate from Tulane University, Williams looks to continue performing across
the U.S. as he embarks on his first summer run tour and gears up for his debut
project later this year.
Sidney
Bird

raised in Arizona, Bird holds her own in the scene of western pop artists like
Kacey Musgraves and Leon Bridges, but also leans into the indie pop scene like
artists, Maggie Rogers and Noah Kahan. A true crossover act, Bird feels a
strong creative impulse when home in Arizona, writing all of her songs there
before fleshing them out with producers in Brooklyn.
