Joe Williamson / Simon Stålhamre live!

Zombie is Joe Williamson’s latest release from acclaimed Stokholm label Sing A Song Fighter. He is proud to sharing the evening with Simon Stålhamre (aka Small Feet).

A spellbinding solo album from Canadian artist Joe Williamson (now residing in Sweden) which could be mistaken for an amazing long lost loner-folk cult album….
With minimal instrumentation (acoustic guitar and vocals, to be exact), these stripped to the bone-songs goes straight to the DIY heart, in the same way as the music of Daniel Johnston, Roky Ericson’s home recordings, the moldy peaches and early Elliott Smith does…

”This isn’t just a first single, it’s a strong statement about who Williamson is as an artist. He’s carving out a space in the folk music scene that values authenticity over polish. Zombie captures both a touching and grounding feeling, resonating with anyone who has ever felt unheard or invisible while longing to express themselves.”  – Zillions Magazine

Joe Williamson was born and raised in Vancouver, Canada. In 1992 he moved to Europe (Amsterdam, Berlin and London) and finally landed in Stockholm, where he’s been residing since 2008.
As a bassist, he has been heard and seen in numerous exciting experimental music acts the last years. Mainly in improvisational music, be it jazz or noise etc. The last years he has been a vital part of the Swedish Underground/Experimental scene via bands like Receptacles, The Greys, The Electrics, Christopher Cantillo (drummer from critically praised band Dina Ögon) ,
And this year he’s been touring as the bass player in Daniel Ögren’s live band.
He is also in the Berlin group Booklet…And he’s probably in more bands he forgot to tell us..

Without pretension, Stockholm’s Simon Stålhamre, the gentleman behind Small Feet, covers huge swaths of emotional and intellectual ground as casually as if he were strolling out for a smoke, journeying through a shapeshifting landscape of dreams towards what another Scandinavian, Prince Hamlet, called ”the undiscovered country”.

”[Small Feet’s] guitar-driven refrains call to mind Band of Horses and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.”
