May 24 street date. Marlon Williams returns with a live album recorded at the historic Auckland Town Hall in May of 2018. The show marked his largest performance to date, providing a fitting end to an international tour in support of "Make Way for Love". The live album also includes previously unreleased covers of Barry Gibb, Yoko Ono, the late Lhasa De Sela, and a Williams live favorite, "Portrait of a Man" by Screamin' Jay Hawkins. 2018 was a monumental year for Williams, with the release of his 2nd album, sold out shows around the world, and a role in the acclaimed film "A Star Is Born". He now turns to the studio with new music due for 2019, as well as a major tour with Florence & The Machine.
September 9 street date. "My Boy", the third solo record from acclaimed New Zealand singer/songwriter Marlon Williams, announces an artist emerging anew. Gone is the solemn, country-indebted crooner with the velvet voice - in his place comes a more playful, shape-shifting creature. Following the release of his second album, 2018's stunning portrait of a breakup, "Make Way For Love", Williams' toured the world, playing major festivals, and appearing on Conan and Later with Jools Holland. He forged a fledgling acting career, making a cameo in Oscar winning film "A Star Is Born", and then major roles in films "The True History of the Kelly Gang", "Lone Wolf" and current Netflix series "Sweet Tooth". Williams has also become an in-demand collaborator, singing on stage with Lorde and Florence Welch, recording duets with Courtney Barnett, Paul Kelly, Yo-Yo Ma, releasing the "Plastic Bouquet" album with Kacy and Clayton, and making his first foray into composing with the film "Juniper". "My Boy" parlays this flush of worldly experience into a vivid, dynamic record as spirited, complex and kinetic as the unfolding life of its performer.
