About FaceOmeter

FaceOmeter is the cypher of singer-songwriter Will T, who was born in Birmingham, England in 1985 and entered the UK's small-time acoustic scene through Exeter, Oxford and London in the late 2000s. Playing live mostly either as a solo act or in an acoustic duo with Max Jones (stage name The Dapper Swindler), Will writes self-consciously lyrical alt-folk/folkantifolk music with vague rock and hiphop influences. The emphasis is often on storytelling - Will has created a diverse fairy tale world whose participants come and go in various different tales. Will has described the chief purpose of his music as theraputic, saying "...it's not all about fame and solid gold hats - mostly it's just that doing what I do allows me to meet and work with some of the most truly awesome people in the world, and the adventures we've already had more than justify my inevitable artistic failure". FaceOmeter has been on tour supporting MC Lars (April 2009) and Ora Cogan (October 2008) and has appeared or worked with Jeffrey Lewis, Triple Rosie, The Magic Lantern, The New York Howl, Gabby Young, Dufus, The Theatre Alchemists, and numerous others. The first studio album 'Why Wait for Failure?' is released November 2014. When not focusing on music, Will enjoys editing his own Last.fm description, an activity which he has described as "not in the least wretched ... some people go jogging".
