Born and raised on a small farm in
Lee County Iowa, a love of the land has always been an important part of
William Elliott Whitmore’s life. An appreciation for nature and its cycles
being taught from an early age. That awareness of birth and death is a constant
theme in the songwriting, through a lens of hopefulness and acceptance. These
things unify us as people, a theme that is often explored in the music. With a
banjo, guitar and kick drum, Whitmore seeks to convey these ideas. For over
twenty years he has traveled the world, performing everywhere from Rome, Italy
to Rome, Georgia. He’s played basements, backyards, festival stages, and
Carnegie Hall, and has no plans to stop anytime soon. “Life is hard, nasty, and
unforgiving at times”, Whitmore says, “but it’s beautiful too, and music can be
a reminder of what we all have in common, a desire to keep putting one foot in
front of the other.”
