Ron Cuzner
my spirit animal
Ron Cuzner was a legendary Jazz radio host in the Milwaukee area for decades. Typically airing after midnight til the wee hours of the morning, one of his late night shows was called “The Dark Side.”
With his hypnotic, halting delivery and exquisite taste, Cuzner would have you hanging on to his every word. Just when you were being charmed by one of his meandering tangents, he would introduce a timeless classic.
America's music. America’s poetry. Thank you Ron.

“Williams is a strong singer-songwriter with seven albums to his name, but even by his high standards, "Every Color Blue" is a golden collection, his voice, heavy and light in one breath, emboldened by assuring church organ on "If You Want Me to Beg" and Memphis soul horns on "Paradise Springs" — and launching him closer to the Springsteen stratosphere than ever before.” - Piet Levy
“Williams is a gifted singer-songwriter, a strong solo performer as at home with a mic and a guitar as any other setting. The new album showcases his music in the hands of what sounds like a Northern version of a Stax session band.” - ANDY MOORE
“...a beautifully wrought and soulful album.” - VICTOR INFANTE
“Hayward Williams’ voice has that wonderful quality that draws people in from the next room to ask Who is that?... I will put this vocal (Fades Away) up against any track by the Great Ones, including Roy Orbison.” - Darrel Norman
“Williams didn’t just make the most of a stressful time with Every Color Blue. He also quite possibly made his best record yet.” - Tyler Maas
