ctrl LIVE: A.A. Williams [UK]

The London-based singer-songwriter A. A. Williams will take us on a brilliantly dramatic and intimate walk on the dark side on Thursday, March 5, 2026.

Having made her debut live appearance at the prestigious Roadburn Festival in the Netherlands off the back of a self-titled EP, A.A. Williams has since toured across the globe with the likes of Cult of Luna, Explosions In The Sky, Russian Circles, Sleep Token and The Sisters of Mercy, as well as establishing herself as a headline artist - including a show at the iconic Queen Elizabeth Hall inside London's Southbank Centre.

Not one to rest on her laurels, she has also released a selection of 'companion pieces' - a collaborative single with Japanese post-rock titans MONO ('Exit In Darkness'); a solo covers collection recorded during 2020's pandemic lockdown - 'Songs From Isolation' - that garnered praise from The Cure's Robert Smith and Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan for her unique take on their original songs.

And perhaps most impressively, 2021's 'arco' saw the multi-instrumentalist completely rework her debut EP from rock instrumentation to a string ensemble, utilising her classical training and arrangement skills to stunning effect.
