Will Sims - Songwriter - North East, Maryland Event Location: Thoughts Words Action Magazine Event Type: Music Review 1st February 2025
Sonically, Will Sims combines several complementary music genres in order to create luxuriant sonic imagery. Alternative rock is probably the most dominant in this sonic equation but don’t be surprised if you stumble upon indie and modern rock along the way. He expertly blends all these sonic ingredients, creating a song that not only vividly showcases his dedication to the craft but also pays homage to contemporary rock music. With soundscapes like these, Will Sims marvelously navigates various sentiments and moods throughout the entire song, making each segment so pleasant to the ears while delivering an important message through his lyrics.

Will Sims - Songwriter - North East, Maryland Event Location: TunedLoud Magazine Event Type: Music Review 16th October 2024
Baltimore’s own Will Sims has long been a name synonymous with the raw authenticity of local rock music. A veteran of the city’s music scene for over a decade, Sims has cultivated a sound that merges the introspection of alternative rock, the emotional pull of pop, and the rebellious energy of hard rock. With the release of his latest single “Axiom,” Sims has not only delivered one of the most profound statements in his storied career but also reaffirmed his commitment to the core values of live music in an era increasingly dominated by digital production.
