William Fitzsimmons is one of the oddest people you will ever meet. Born the youngest child of two blind parents, William was raised in the outskirts of the steel city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Due to the family's inability to communicate through normal visual means, William's childhood home was filled with a myriad of sounds to replace what eyes could not see. The house was suffused with pianos, guitars, trombones, talking birds, classical records, family sing-a-longs, bedtime stories, and the bellowing of a pipe organ, which his father built into the house with his own hands. When his father's orchestral records were not resonating through the walls, his mother would educate him on the folk stylings of James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, and Simon & Garfunkel.

Dear William,

Just wondering why there are no references to your age anywhere.

Perhaps you might see fit to satisfy my curiosity.....

Hope you are well x

Thanks for adding me. I have no idea how your music managed to escape my attention until now. I have been listening all weekend and your songs, which are quite simply sublime, are really getting under my skin. Better late than never as they say. I'm quite sure that from here on in your music will become a rather integral part of my listening routine. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent.

I can't even tell you how much your music has inspired me. It's so intrinsically beautiful and dulcet, it would put me to sleep if I didn't want to pay attention to it so bad ha.
