Rising singer-songwriter Lily Williams has shared her label debut project, How The Story Ends, available now via Overall Recordings/Atlantic Records.

Narrating life as it passes by, Lily Williams is a singer-songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist. At the age of 10 in a little town outside of London, she began playing classical piano and clarinet inspired by her mother. At the same time, her father introduced her to Billy Joel, Carol King and more, sparking her love of songwriting. A passion for storytelling combined with her orchestral and jazz influences soon merged in her own dreamy writing. Having honed her talents overseas at Berklee College of Music in Boston, the multi-talented musician found herself stuck back in London during the pandemic where she began writing How The Story Ends.
After posting some of her unreleased demos online in 2021, the prolific concert pianist swiftly attracted an audience of loyal listeners attracted to her lullaby-like vocals and aesthetically pleasing short film mood boards. Sparking attention on TikTok, “I Hope You Think Of Me” became the first single. On its heels, “July (Later On)” inspired 150K+ plus unique Reels on Instagram and went on to amass over 3M streams. Tallying over 10M streams independently, her authentic voice has endeared a growing fanbase.
How The Story Ends tells one cohesive story through ten songs written over the course of two years. Throughout the project, Lily’s vivid lyricism and transportive melodies illustrate her most intimate memories of young love, heartbreak, a fear of the unknown, grief, loss, and a journey to find peace.
