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.
Hey William THX much for accepting me as a friend :)) and your nice comment.. Your songs are GREAT, I have no fav, because I love them all... Sorry for my english :( And I wish you ALL the BEST in New Year!!!
William- Happy New Year to you! I was wondering... will there be any tour footage available for those of us who wish we could have been there to witness your music in person?
Or perhaps playing Chicago wouldn't be to far of a stretch in the near future... even for shits and giggles perhaps.?.?
Us singer/songwriters are cold up here and would LOVE to feel warm for an evening.
after searching and searching nearly every music store in my city (perth), i finally found a copy of 'the sparrow and the crow' in australia! my life is complete!
