Ready The Astronaut

Over the course of his career, William Fitzsimmons has made his living writing a specific brand of

honest and inward-looking folk songs that fearlessly and candidly examine the evolving self while

dexterously communicating his talent for robust melodies and catchy instrumentation. That the

subject matter tends to dwell on the darker parts of human existence and relationships is no

coincidence.

Fitzsimmons is set to release Ready the Astronaut as a powerful testament to his own past, and

by weaving his story through the familiar tale of Icarus, he illustrates his willingness to accept his

life's highs and lows by paying tribute to the influence they have on the future.
