Will Linley

Emerging with a striking signature style, Will Linley delicately balances stark honesty and sunny songcraft. The South Africa-born singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist coats raw emotion with saccharine melodies, lamenting how bad heartbreak sucks on hummable hooks delivered with unfiltered candor. As such, he captures the whirlwind experience of Gen-Z life in his songs.

Will’s 2021 single “miss me (when you’re gone)” exploded with over 20 million Spotify streams and went #1 on radio in South Africa where it also picked up a gold certification. It paved the way for his 2022 kill all my feelings EP, while the 2023 single “Last Call” generated another 20 million Spotify streams. Of the latter, OnesToWatch praised the “very punchy piano-buttressed chorus that screams car ride sing-along,” and The Line Of Best Fit professed, “Will Linley is making waves with heartbreak bangers and upbeat ballads.” Meanwhile, he shared arena and stadium stages with everyone from OneRepublic to Maroon 5, and is now embarking on his own sold out headline runs.
