WILLOW is the solo project of Christchurch based singer/songwriter Michal Williams. With her previous commitment to bands 4manbob and Sideshow coming to a close in 2008 along with her sideprojects The Gentlys and Solemn, Michal has since enjoyed time to devote to her own songs. Michal loves a rough, raw sound, and has enjoyed playing a variety of gigs around christchurch both as an acoustic duo and a full band. Influenced by Elliot Smith, Iron and Wine, Sufjan Stevens and Ben Folds, WILLOW is an acoustic folk sound with its own distinct flavour. Keep an ear on this Page this year for new songs posted and an EP on the way.
