There are thousands of love songs sung sweetly and strummed softly by a big guy with a big heart. But there's only one William Prince. The singer-songwriter from the Peguis First Nation has a disarming presence at the Tiny Desk ā his voice warm, eyes smiling.
Prince had flown into Washington, D.C., on a red-eye flight. Jetlagged, he took a long nap on one of our couches, roused himself, then quietly commanded the room. These songs, two of which are from his 2023 album Stand in the Joy, swoon at the wonders of love, but more importantly give partners space to grow and bloom over time. Prince had performed a Tiny Desk (home) concert in 2021, so here he improvises a little song of gratitude with a wink: "I'd thought the Desk would be tinier."

Saw him in Vancouver the past month. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of musicians and this is the very first musician where his words touched the soul so much the tears were drippinā. So talented.

So beautiful. I hope this man makes millions. He deserves it.

By the time I realized what had just happened, the video was over. I was entranced from the beginning - what a wonderful artist.

Boy that spoken word lead-in in the first song just gets your mind to begging for him to sing. And then he does and itās more than you can ever have hoped forā¦Knocked the breath out of me.
