Will Overman’s genre-bending, storytelling approach to songwriting is a product of being born and bred on the east coast, finding love and being tested on the west coast, and finding a renewed passion for his art around the world.
The Charlottesville, VA based singer-songwriter’s music carries a maturity to match the up-and-down life he has lived over the past 26 years. From fronting a touring band while attending college, through-hiking the Appalachian Trail and traveling around the world for several months, to witnessing his parents divorce, standing by his wife as she beat cancer twice, and tough times financially; Will’s songs evoke the wisdom of an old soul with youthful optimism.
Will shares his stories and perspective through songs that cross genres from Pop and Folk to Country and Rock ‘n Roll; taking an approach laid by legendary artists such as Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and James Taylor, and expanded upon by the likes of Josh Ritter, Jason Isbell, and John Mayer.
