“Dancealble, I would place Mr. Williams alongside such artists as Page France, Asher Lev, or Sufjan Stevens, all of whom he shares a faith and a similar sound with. A certain type of new folk sound with a lot of indie darling credibility. Apparently the man puts on an incredible and personable show. If anyone has the chance to catch him live please please please make an effort to get out and see him. He continues to impress with the offerings on his myspace page and mark my words, Zach will be huge. All in due time he will play every indie festival from Bonnaroo to Pitchfork. And he will dominate.”

“I had the incredible luck of seeing a great Park Slope musician – Zach Williams – on my first visit to Bar 4. He was also joined briefly by Joely Pittman who sang backup on what is now my favorite song ever, Dirty Feet.”

Love your sound!
Hey Zach,
Just dropping by to check out your site. Still digging the music man. Hope to talk to you soon.
John
zach, love the new site design and absolutely still love the music. cheers mate.
Zach,
Just checking out the site and wanted to say hey. I enjoyed listening to your music today and hope we can catch up next time your down in GA.
uh – how or where can i get the “dirty feet” song on mp3? you can’t write a phenomenal song like that and not share it with the people?
i just got back fgrom seeing you play at rockwood – that song was outstanding.
me need mp3.
cheers!
I had the privilege of seeing, hearing, and meeting Zach last week at Clemson, SC. In a small room with just his guitar and his incredible voice, he rocked my soul as strong as it’s been rocked in a long, long time. This a MAJOR TALENT just waiting for the world’s discovery. What’s wrong with you world? You’re missing something special if you don’t listen to this incredible singer/songwriter. His music defies easy classification. Some might see him as a folk-rocker, or a rocker, or a soul singer. I see him as all of these things, but I see him as SOUL singer. That much soul has to be capitalize. Don’t bother classifying him, just listen. It’s a wonderful experience.
An additional note, Zach’s performance at Clemson was sponsored by To Write Love On Her Arms. Check out this wonderful organization at twloha.com.
Hey, I was at the To Write Love on Her Arms thing in Brooklyn, and I was just wondering if you were gonna release an acoustic CD of your stuff? Because I really enjoyed your version of that song James from that day, just you being on the guitar and having that girl sing with you. Thanks, keep going strong.
Zach – Loved your singing and playing at Southcrest Church and tell Josiah he makes the flute look cool!
Hey man,
Your site is totally blessing me Zach. Its been so long since I last saw you and your wife at Woodstock… your music is great and your sound equally unique and soul-full. I am truly blown away at your relentless pursuit of your call to Him and even though I rarely think about you anymore, I am compelled to pray and be of any support I can be to spur you on to continue in your doing good for all the right reasons. Keep it up man. I’m totally encouraged and stoked to see your growth and now being a role model and leader.
Happy Thanksgiving and congratulations on the new baby girl!!

you might not remember, but we went to church together back when I was a confused and rebellious hellion. ive been changed in a dramatic way. Jesus.
you have a really unique sound to your voice, and your songs have real feeling in them i like them especially fears
you got a lot of talent you’ll go far
Love Adele
Hey man I recently saw you at heavy and light. All I can say is come back to Orlando. Your song about James touched my life so much. I recently also had my best friends mom pass. She was my second mom and mentor. All I can say is thanks you really have helped god impact my life.
Hi ,
I saw you play in Brooklyn and i was really moved by you, your music, and your story. I am a musician also and i was wondering if you could send me like a chord chart or tabs or something, and lyrics for your song fears. i would really love to play that song in particular. I would never take credit for it though. If you could get back to me that would be great. Thank you
Hey man
Your music is great – went to the Ottawa show last night, and got your CD – amazing.
But no “James” song. Where can I get more of your music?
Keep playing man; thanks for playing; you’re amazing!
Hey. I was at the conference in Ottawa and you were AMAZING.
The song James made ma cry. It so beautiful.
You’re really good <3
Love for you, your wife and your kid
Hey there! I was fortunate enough to hear you at FAU in January. I came up to you after the show and shook your hand. I have shaken the hands of a hundred or so famous musicians/artists and this time it was different. Something about your performance made me feel different. From the strumming of your guitar to the stomping of your feet, I was in awe. You are an exceptional performer, artist, musician, whatever you want to call it. You’re not natural but you’re definitely amazing. As a musician I respect appreciate what you do. Thank you for coming back to FAU and performing for us. You’re part of a great thing. I hope to be purchasing you albums in the mall soon. Take care and thank you again for the inspiration.
hey zach, where can your music be purchased from . I like it.
Lee
Hey Zach,
I got your cd last night at GVSU I wasnt sure about buying it but I have listened to it at skool and now im addicted to ur music the song James has been stuck in my head all day.
Dont stop rockin!:)
Love,
Faith
LOVE take care and a lion and a dragon.. release them on iTunes soon!! Good luck with everything! Your voice is amazing!
hey man my name is also zach williams i live in pine grove PA. im 16 years old. i love showing people this site. some people dont believe its for real they think i just made it up. but this is really cool. i also think your music is very relaxing. very good tune keep it up
Hey, i love your tunes. Great Sound. I’m a bit confused though, cos i bought your song ‘fears’ on itunes, and it’s a completely different song to the one on your website and myspace pages… ??
Hey Zach,
I’ve been listening to stuff, it sound really cool.
I work at Snowbird with Zach Mabry. He showed some of your other stuff, its really cool man
Your music is soo relaxing, perfect on a warm summer afternoon. Hopefully you’ll receive more notoriety and recognition for your refreshingly calm and upbeat music! (:
Zack, I heard you at Catalyst ’09 and I loved your songs. You lifted my spirit man!
Great work!
It was great hearing your story and your music at catalyst thursday man. Your passion is contagious…
i saw you at the catalyst conference this week and just wanted to say that i think you are amazing. i bought the cd and have listened to it sooooooooooo many times
the names that fell is my favorite, it is so moving. i was wondering if there is any way you could send me the guitar chords for it? i just play at home and would never take credit for it. when i hear a song that moves me and i love, i like to try and learn it on the guitar for my own enjoyment, so if you could send them to me that would be great 
thanks <3
Just returned from catalyst, you turned my heart inside out , thank you
Saw you at Catalyst ’09 and it was phenomenal. How can we get you down here in Mobile, AL?
hey zach just want you to know that you were awesome at catalyst and your music and story is very inspiring and heart warming. God bless you, you left a mark on me and your music is awesome
wow!!! i am so glad that i had the privilege of hearing you live at Catalyst 09. this was the first time to hear your music…and to say the least i was blown away. i can listen to your music over and over, and discover something new every time i listen. so thank you Zach. God bless as you guys start a new church.
Saw you perform at the Catalyst conference and was amazed at your talent. After which, I bought your cd via iTunes. Loved it, however, Names that Fell is not the AMAZING fully acoustic version you played at the conference.
Not that you need suggestions, but you are plenty good enough on your own. The “band” version is not nearly as powerful. Would you have the acoustic version available somewhere?
Keep up the great stories.
saw you last night @ public assembly – you guys were fantastic!! the whole mood of the crowd was amazing, especially during ‘take care,’ everybody singing along with abandon – thanks for making such great music, i had a wonderful time!
Hey Zach,
You were great last night at Billy Reid… I have been listening to you ALL day..and spreading the WORD! All the best..
M
Hey there! Saw you, heard you, cheered you at Catalyst ’09! You rocked it…your passion is matchless! Bless your heart! Your music is amazing…thankful to be able to hear you do your thing for the King! Keep up the good work….WOW! I wish you and your family the best!
you were at brockport for TWLOHA and you were absolutely amazing. you are on my iPod and on repeat! you better make it big! if you don’t the suits are crazy!
I saw Zach at Heavy and Light a year ago and was completely blown away by his stage presence. The man is absolutely astounding live and I sincerely hope to see him again.
I recently bought Story Time on iTunes and have since fallen in love with it. The music is wonderful whether on an mp3 or a stage, but Zach is on the top of my list for lives show to see.

Hey Zach, just saw you perform last night at the Fillmore in Charlotte with Ben Folds and thought you were amazing! Any chance you’ll be releasing Losing You Slowly or Beat the Drum (I think that was the name…) soon? Best of luck!
Zach,
Saw you open for Ben Folds last night in Norfolk. You might have been regretting that bow-tie decision, but I hope you’re not regretting the decision to play that room. Your voice filled it, man. There’s another band I listen to called Hoots and Hellmouth who classify what they play as “new music for old souls.” I’d say that fits you just about right. Keep on doing what you do. Wish you luck and all the best.
I saw you with Ben Folds a few days ago, and I LOVED it. I was just wondering when you will be releasing an album with the songs you played to open, like “I’m The One You Should Have Let Go” and “I’m Losing You Slowly”. It was great!
Zach,
My boyfriend and I caught your show at the Norva in Norfolk on 3/20. We were so unbelievably impressed. Just beautiful music. The song about your daughter brought me to tears. I am also friends with Justin and Anna Street–and I was so delighted to know you were a friend of theirs! It is so awesome to see you on tour with Ben. I can’t imagine its too much longer till we see you headlining at the Norva. Again, beautiful music and awesome performance. Blessings to you, your fam, and your career.
~Alexis
Saw your opening act for Ben Folds on 20 Mar 10 at the Norva. I loved that you got fantastic crowd participation from the start:) Amazing:) I loved the energy you created in the crowd!! Also loved the song you wrote for your daughter. You’re always welcome in Norfolk:)
Saw you open for Ben Folds in ATL… “Losing You Slowly” has been stuck in my head for weeks!!!
Blessings on your journey…
Loved you opening for Ben Folds last night at 930 Club, “Slowly Losing You” is a great song and touched my financee and I deeply as we recently lost a baby girl; how can we get it?
Zach Williams!
Saw you in Atlanta with Ben Folds at the Tabernacle and it was spectacular. I bought your CD right after the show and I have been addicted ever since. Cant wait until you come back to Georgia becuase I am defiantly going to be there. Keep up the great sound, lyrics, and performances!!
Your album has been on repeat for the past few days. Absolutely love it. Bravo. Let me know when the next album comes out.
Heard you at Catalyst. Amazing. Would love to hear

Hey – you were fantastic at Catalyst West on Friday. Great job! I’m a new fan, telling everybody I know. I might ruin your demo since I’m a boomer, but hope that’s ok:) Names That Feel, Hospital, wow….my 9 yr old girl rides horses….made me think…gotta trust the creator and savior. Buying your music, that’s for sure, looking forward to next record. You have a gift.
Loved hearing you at Catalyst West. You have incredible passion in your music and performance and a great story to match it. Keep it up!
Saw you at Catalyst West…AMAZING…incredible talent-so gifted by God. Keep writing, playing, singing…where can I get your album?
Blessings to you!
Saw and heard you for the first time at Catalyst West. My husband and I were so touched by Hospital and loved your sound and stage presence. Would love to be able to see you on Youtube.
Blessings,
Michelle
Saw you at Catalyst in Irvine. We loved your music. We bought you CD and it is amazing. Would love to see you live if you come to CA again.
Thanks for some great music! I am having some trouble finding your lyrics though? Keep chasing after Jesus’ love! Prayers go out to you, your band, and family!
Clicked on you because of the rave review from Amy Lee. That’s quite a compliment. She’s quite right. You’ve really got great talent.
I might ask if you could hint at some type of testimony here on the site perhaps? if applicable that is.
You’re too good of a secret to keep.
