September 23, 2022 (Nashville, TN) - Today, Nashville singer/songwriter Sam Williams has released the delicately scathing “Blame ‘Em Both”, another song from the forthcoming deluxe version of his celebrated debut, Glasshouse Children out on October 14th via Mercury Nashville. The expanded edition of the record, entitled Glasshouse Children: Tilted Crown, includes six brand new tracks. Preorder of album HERE.
"I remember this song's chorus starting as a poem I’d written. Blame ‘Em Both expounds on the origination of sin,” says Sam Williams on the single. “Where does it come from and where does it go? The live band really enhances the tone of the song.”
Glasshouse Children was released last year to glowing reviews. Rolling Stone
said that the LP was “...an introspective meditation on hurt and
healing, growth and loss, sin and redemption: it’s a reckoning with
fate, freewill and the family ties that bind us. Sam’s skyscraping
vocals shine through these ten lush, cinematic songs, as he delivers
gut-wrenching, honest and plainspoken lyrics with raw vulnerability and
deep empathy.”
Regarding Glasshouse Children: Tilted Crown, Sam says, “I
felt some of the songs that didn’t make Glasshouse Children deserved
their shine, while also wanting to provide new music before a second LP.
Tilted Crown tells a little more story and lets the listener in just
that much more.”

The grandson of country pioneer Hank Williams and the son of outlaw legend Hank Jr.,
Sam Williams is the latest in a long line of American originals, but
he's not here for the sake of tradition. He sings with his own singular
voice and he writes in his own singular style, fusing gut-wrenching
honesty with plainspoken poetics and raw vulnerability with deep
empathy. Suffering the sudden loss of his sister and mother this past
year has been profoundly devastating for Williams, but the journey of
grief and self-discovery he has found himself on has led to a deeper
understanding of his purpose in life and inspired him to honor his
legacy with truth and integrity.
