Mercury Nashville’s Sam Williams has teamed up with Vevo to share exclusive DSCVR performances of "The World: Alone" and "Glasshouse Children" off his forthcoming album, Glasshouse Children, which is set to arrive on 8/20.
The latest in a long line of American originals, Williams—who is the grandson of country pioneer Hank Williams and the son of outlaw legend Hank Jr.—released “The World: Alone” last year. The single served as an introduction to his forthcoming debut and was a tribute to his late sister, Katie, arriving on what would've been her 28th birthday.
“That song was never slated to be a single, but I knew no other way to honor Katie’s memory,” said Williams.
As for the album’s title track, “Glasshouse Children”—which was co-written with Ronnie Bowman and The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach—is an orchestral reflection on how past trauma can shape present strength.
Williams joins Vevo DSCVR series alumni like HARDY, Mitchell Tenpenny and Jade Bird, among others.
