Warren H Williams first started playing guitar with his father, the legendary Gus Williams, at the age of six. He was brought up on country music but also pursued the pleasures of  rock and roll, developing his guitar skills. Country music was in his blood however and Warren soon went back  to country as a songwriter and recording artist and talented multi-instrumentalist.

Born at the remote community of Hermannsburg about 120kms west of Alice Springs, Warren  H Williams is now the biggest name on the country music scene in the Centre. His second album (Country Friends & Me) featuring duets with some of Australia’s highest profile country singers launched Warren well into mainstream media throughout Australia.

Places In Between is the latest album (May 2002) of original rocking country songs, influenced by the time spent touring during 2001 to promote his previous album. A grant from the Australia Council to complete this album has ensured a top quality production team working to produce this great album.

Where My Heart Is (Deadly Sounds Album of the Year winner for 2001) is Warren’s third album of original country ballads, the sounds of which cross readily into mainstream listening. The focus is on his unique vocal style, where rocking calypso feels intersperse the romantic stories of remembered loves and homeland yearnings.

He shares this 1998 released album, Country Friends & Me, with invited guests John Williamson, Greg Champian, Jimmy Little, Johnny Chester & Ted Egan . The duet, Raining on the Rock, with John Williamson is one of Australia’s most recognised country songs ever. This 18 track CD features many of Warren’s original songs and several co-productions with other famous artists who dropped by CAAMA studios during the recording.

Western Wind was Warren’s first album, recorded at CAAMA in 1995 using many top quality Territory musicians. The full band rocks this album along with some great up tempo songs, the best of which were also rerecorded on Country Friends . He is a prolific songwriter and will go to great lengths to perform and promote his music live – touring the remote communities of Central Australia and all the  way across to the big city stages.

Warren H Williams received a standing ovation when performing at Tamworth festival in 1998 with John Williamson and has since toured all over Australia including regular appearances at Tamworth & other Country Music festivals. Corrobboree 2000 in Sydney, Yeperenye Federation Festival in Alice Springs, Royal Melbourne Show, Stompem Ground in Broome have all been in the tour diary recently.

Warren is a regular DJ on CAAMA Radio playing all his favourite country tunes and encourages many of
the newer artists of all musical genres in the area.  He is in high demand for his guitar skills and can often be seen helping out on stage, in recording studios or penning songs for his many friends and talented family in the music industry in the Northern Territory.
