New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Alex Williams was on top of the world following a very successful debut record in 2017, but it was a quick fall when the temptations of the "rockstar life" caught up to him. On his new song "Waging Peace" (out today), the title track of his anticipated sophomore record (out 10.21 via Lightning Rod Records), Williams lays down his weapons of self-destruction and finds peace. It's one of the most compelling and triumphant autobiographical songs from his new album.

"I chose this song as the title track because it seemed like the centerpiece for this whole project as far as the subject matter goes," says Williams. "I wrote this at home in 2020 during the initial part of the pandemic, and it's a song about finding peace and optimism within yourself in this world, amongst the troubled times we live in, as well as the guilt one may hang on to that seems to never let go of the mental game. Discovering that we are always our own worst enemy, and that making changes to better ourselves is the best thing we can do in order to see and truly cherish the important things that shine the brightest in our lives."

Williams' bold, against-the-grain swagger and vocal grit has had critics comparing him to fellow artists like Chris Stapleton and Sturgill Simpson. His 'Waging Peace' album showcases his "anything but ordinary" (Billboard) sonic and lyrical style.

Williams will perform an AmericanaFest showcase at Exit/In on Friday, September 16 at 11 PM CT, followed by a Grand Ole Opry performance on Saturday, September 17 at 7 PM CT — as well as a run of shows across the Southeast and Midwest. For more information, visit alexwilliamsofficial.com.
