Will Knox
Will Knox is a born storyteller. With just a few words and chords, he brings worlds to life. Inspired by the classic storytelling of Leonard Cohen and Paul Simon, the tone of Elliott Smith and Nick Drake, and the freshness of more recent artists such as Fink and The National.
The Brit has been living in Haarlem for years, and has been focusing on Dutch projects ever since. He has worked with artists such as Duncan Laurence, Sevdaliza, Son Mieux, Sarah Julia, néomí, Dotan, Philine, Ilse DeLange, and more. Will Knox has always written from the heart, but on Trouble Times, his fifth studio album, he writes straight from the heart. Knox is known for his profound lyrics and emotional openness, but now adds sharp focus and protest to that. The result is his most urgent album to date.
His latest album takes him to four venues in the Netherlands, including Simplon!
