This week, New Settlers features one of the Old Settlers Inn’s favorite performers. Singer-songwriter Brooks Williams has been with New Settlers since the first year and we’ve recorded him whenever he was in the area. He combines rock, blues and jazz from his American roots with folk music of England, where he now resides. He tours extensively, so you may get a chance to see him in person if you’re lucky. In the meantime, enjoy a great performance from right up the road in Mound Ridge, Kansas.
Here's Brooks performing Statesboro Blues:
