William Prince

Guided by a practical yet profound gratitude, William Prince's songs convey the power of wonder and humility. A masterclass in skilful simplicity, Prince's songwriting is grounded in a balance between the personal and the universal, his own moments of self-discovery and the larger questions we face together. Prince offers what’s true for himself in whatever way it is helpful. Grace is not a final state but a process.

Musical Journey

Over four albums, with his newest "Stand in the Joy" just released, Prince has created a body of work that traces a remarkable journey. From the giant first step taken with his award-winning debut, "Earthly Days," which introduced Prince to the world, through releasing two full albums in 2020 "Reliever" and "Gospel First Nation" in the midst of chaos and confusion, William Prince's discography finds its steadying, timeless appeal in his rich voice and assured restraint.

Collaborations and Career Milestones

Prince has also built a collection of memorable collaborations with many of Canada’s most esteemed artists, including Buffy Sainte-Marie, The Tragically Hip and Serena Ryder along the way. Prince's career trajectory is marked by accolades and milestones:

• An opening slot for Neil Young
• A JUNO Award
• A Tiny Desk concert
• A return to the studio with Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb

With meaningful, impactful appearances on national broadcasts honoring icons and amplifying crucial conversations alike, Prince has taken up his deserved place on the national stage.

Live Performances

In concert, where his musical gifts and worldview converge in and between songs, Prince often remarks on the distance his songs have taken him. Be it his breakout BBC-approved "Breathless," hometown favorite "7," or soul-searching "Lighthouse," heard around the world closing Angelina Jolie’s "Those Who Wish Me Dead," he’s traveled the road from Peguis First Nation to playing sold-out shows across continents.

Looking Forward

As he readies for his next album, Prince finds himself exactly where he needs to be.
