Playing 'some of the coolist jazz piano on the planet,' William Woods is an adult contemporary pianist/composer whose music has been called 'smooth jazz for grown ups' 'with a dash of David Benoit, Joe Sample and Bob James.' His 1998 debut 'Doctor's Dilemma' garmered national recognition and airplay. His second CD, ‘Cobalt Blue’, was released to critical acclaim and picked up a Smoothie Award along the way. In addition, the first track, ‘Blue Me Down’, was included by WJZW DJ Al Santos in his 2004 Top 50 Year End Countdown. His third release, the Top 40's ‘Every Part Of Me’ enjoyed 4 months on the national charts and received rave reviews including JazzTimes. He released his fourth and most compelling CD to date, 'The Hear and Now' on Whaling City Sound in September 2006. Check out his recent interview in Jazz Monthly!
