Williams is also responsible for penning songs for Grammy® winning artists Tamela Mann, Smokie Norful and Karen Clark-Sheard.
On his latest six song EP, Speak Life, Volume 1, Oscar Williams and The Band of Life enlisted a bevy of up and coming artists who beautifully bring all six songs to life. C. Ashley Brown-Lawrence (Hezekiah Walker) shines bright on the current single, Heal The Land, Tonya Baker and April Nevels have a spiritual singing spar on the mid-tempo Crushing Is Not The End, newcomer Joseph Anthony eloquently expresses his excitement about his Destiny, on the upbeat Right There, which is reminiscent of the Ricky Dillard classic “Great Things”, Mitchell Ford creates a musical lane all for himself while the infectious track Soar boasts the lyrics: “Nothing can stop me, turning my dreams into reality” over a blazing dance track with vocals provided by ThadWorld.
The EP rounds off with the beautiful Your Name, which features Williams on piano, along with some of the Dallas Forth Worth’s finest.
