Bridj Williams
Bridj Williams is an Americana/Indy Rock singer-songwriter, multi- instrumentalist, music producer, audio engineer and visual artist. After a decade of music production and performance in New York City, Bridj has returned to his roots in NW Indiana. With new found space and simplicity in his mid-west life-style, Bridj has been exploring a meditive space through writing. “Music and songwriting are about healing and connecting to deeper parts of the self and humanity. The process of writing has been life changing for me and I hope that other people that are on their journey of healing feel seen and supported by the honesty and vulnerability in my writing.
Imagine Tracy Chapman fronting the Gin Blossoms, performing tunes written by Tom Petty, and you will have the recipe for the current Bridj Williams sound. One can expect interesting and diverse songs that feel touching and familiar. Here are couple links to get you started.
