WILBR

WILBR is a manifestation of "acoustic artivism," sharing songs for better worlds: our individual ones, and the one we share. With a voice, guitar, and looper pedal, Will captures attention through his use of storytelling and artful musicianship, contributing to a dynamic performance grounded in authentic emotional expression.

Will has found deep healing through music--as a listener and a creator. His musical journey has been been a supportive force in embracing growth and self-discovery. 

Prior to his musical reintroduction (and after a couple run-ins with the law), he attended a wilderness therapy program, which introduced him to the concept of mindfulness. Having quit guitar lessons as a child, Will picked the guitar back up soon after leaving the desert, and his musical development seems to have mirrored his personal development from there.

In 2024, after facing a years-old pattern of self-abandonment, Will dedicated himself to healing. Out of that healing came WILBR's debut single, "So You Know", which marked a shift in Will's artistic confidence and helped define a guiding mission:

To shine light in, on, and around darkness.

Will intends to continue showing up authentically and imperfectly, with the hope that you will be inspired to practice radical self-acceptance and take back your power from old ways of thinking and being.

Currently, Will is midway through a busk and open mic tour, spanning 18 states in the Eastern US, during which he has continued to release music. On April 20, 2026, Wilbr's EP "The Tiny Mic (Live)" debuted. One track, "Face Your Dread", was featured on Veer Magazine's Top 10 This Week playlist. WILBR's recent release "Little Yellow Hearts" is a protest song and personal reflection on empathy, which invites listeners to tap their foot as well as look inward. 

The song has also become a support vehicle for a Honduran mother and her daughter. To learn more, CLICK HERE
