Fusing elements of World music, Afro-beat, Latin rhythms, Hip-hop and Jazz improvisation – the trio takes you through a musical journey that brings music from the World together.  The guitarist was featured on Jazz FM 91.1 on the jazzology program hosted by Larry Green.  Deeply influenced by the West African griots and Brazilian composers, through his original compositions, William uses folk melodies to tell his story.  The guitarist is also in demand as a performer, musical director, clinician and educator.  He performs as a sideman with other artists from the GTA and international touring groups.  He has  performed at the Brantford Jazz Festival, Toronto’s Afrofest, festivals in Calgary, in Montreal, Nuit d’Afrique in Québec, in Vancouver and Hot Springs, BC
