Will Linley is here to make you feel—and maybe dance a little while you're at it.
Blending brutal honesty with catchy melodies, the South Africa-born singer, songwriter,
and multi-instrumentalist has carved out a signature sound that captures the highs,
lows, and chaos of Gen-Z life. Whether he’s mourning a breakup or chasing a fleeting
spark, Will wraps raw emotion in shimmering pop hooks and delivers it all with unfiltered
charm.
His breakout 2021 single “miss me (when you’re gone)” exploded with over 20M+
Spotify streams, hit #1 on South African radio, and went gold. That momentum carried
into his 2022 debut EP ‘kill all my feelings’ and continued with 2023’s “Last Call,”
generating another 20M+ streams. OnesToWatch called his choruses “car ride
sing-along” gold, and The Line of Best Fit hailed him as a rising star crafting “heartbreak
bangers and upbeat ballads.”
In late 2023, Will dropped the ‘Magic’ EP to critical acclaim, and has amassed over 50
million streams globally. Most recently, he unveiled “Cinematic,” the first glimpse of his
hotly anticipated debut album, due Fall 2025.
He’s shared arena and stadium stages with Maroon 5 and OneRepublic, and now sells
out his own headline shows around the world. This Fall, he’s set to return to the EU and
UK for his Hopeless Romantic Tour—bringing his gut-punch lyrics and sky-high
choruses to fans everywhere.
