That’s the first thing you need to know about Will Banister. From the state of New Mexico, raised about 20 miles from the Texas line, Will grew up with the sounds of Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, George Strait and Brooks and Dunn blaring through the speakers of his dad’s pickup. This made a huge impact in shaping the sound of Banister’s songs. The lyrics along with the fiddle and steel in Will’s music will have you reminiscing about the days of country radio in the 1990s, while still sounding fresh with today’s sounds.
Will has performed all over the country, in addition to multiple tours in the U.K. and Europe. His latest album “Everything Burns” consists of 11 songs, 10 of which were either written or co-written by Banister, received a 5 star review, and was announced as album of the month in the March of 2020 edition of the U.K. publication Country Music People magazine. The 2021 Clint Eastwood film "Cry Macho" was released to theaters as well as on HBO Max, in which Will performed the opening song entitled "Find A New Home." That song, which was written by Grammy award-winner Mark Mancina, topped out at #2 on the Shazam Discovery chart. On January 27th of 2023, his song "Right Where We Belong" (co-written by Roger Springer, Jeff Hyde and Banister) was released. Will has accumulated a social media following consisting of 134k followers on TikTok, 45k on Instagram, over 223k followers on Facebook, and those numbers continue to grow rapidly.
