Young singer-songwriters like Denver Williams exemplify everything that’s right and exciting about the evolution of Texas music currently brewing in creative hotspots like Fort Worth. There, he’s grown into an artist who’s equally confident on stage and in the studio. Appreciative of the past without falling into slavish imitation, Denver’s songs are engaging pastiches that draw from everyday experiences and tap his mastery of wide-ranging styles. If forced to describe Denver Williams’ music, forget lazy tags like “Americana.” Hyphenated labels like “cosmic country” or “psychedelic honky tonk” are also over-simplications but they acknowledge the vastness of his sound palette. In short, Denver’s music is repurposed life.
