Will Faerber
Will Faerber is an International recording artist singer/songwriter/filmaker and the owner of Vortex Ranch.
Will played on his first professional recording date at the age of eighteen with the Steve Getz Quintet. The recording would win the Newport Jazz Festival’s Fiftieth Anniversary Contest. That was in 1971, Will has been performing and recording ever since.
David Allen of the BBC called Will’s 1997 release, NO SMALL COMFORT, “One of the best of the year”. The recording spawned five dance club hits and kept Will and his band touring the UK and Europe for three years where they headlined such notable festivals as the Jacksonville and the Americana. They also performed twice at London’s Wembley Arena.
Tracks from, No Small Comfort, have also been in feature films, choreographed for Dance and covered by other Artists in Nashville. Will is a dynamic and charismatic performer: Richard James had this to say in his San Diego Troubadour review. “Faerber sings in an unaffected, conversational style, sometimes making his lyrical delivery feel like a letter from an old friend. His husky voice has a distinct twang that brings an unexpected down-home feel to an otherwise elegant affair. It’s a clever contrast that sounds natural, not contrived.” Will has recorded a total of six critically acclaimed CDs.
