Dar Williams

“One of America’s very best singer-songwriters.” – The New Yorker

An icon of the modern folk era, Dar Williams’ is acclaimed for her intimate, introspective songs, lyrical wit and wisdom, and incredible three-octave vocal range.  Often compared with Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Emmylou Harris and Suzanne Vega, Dar rose out of the vibrant mid-90s Boston music scene and was inspired by the eclectic influences of alt-rockers, Berklee jazz musicians, slam poets, and other folk artists. In the years since, she’s toured with Joan Baez, played main stages throughout North America, became a published author, and continues to make achingly personal, liltingly sweet, sardonically smart music.” (NPR)

“The corner of the industry draped in heartfelt storytellers is, in fact, folk. [Dar Williams] fits right in with the best-of-the-best – the Joni Mitchells and Emmylou Harris’.” – the Aquarion

“A Lilith Fair veteran and New England folk-pop mainstay, Dar Williams continues to make achingly personal, liltingly sweet, sardonically smart music.” – NPR
