Trusten Williams - A Penchant for Collaborative Songwriting

Trusten Williams - A Penchant for Collaborative Songwriting

Camdenton, Missouri native Trusten Williams is anothertreasure that has come into my orbit by virtue of my volunteering as a programmer/dj on community radio. Now aretired educator, Trusten has found a way to get his penchant for collaborating and writing amazing songs, recorded by a cadre of some of Americana/Roots music’s best practitioners.

For many years Trusten and his wife Tracie have hostedstellar house concerts; I was privileged to experience one of the musical highlights of my life a few years back when the Williams’ hosted the legendary Verlon Thompson with Chad Elliot and Tommy Lewis opening at their home in Camdenton.

Trusten recently drove up from his present home inSpringfield, MO to share the stories and give the details behind some selections from a 17 song album “Songwriters” co-written with his friend Benny Nale, the proceeds of which will go to support the mission of St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital in Memphis, TN.

Enjoy this conversation and musical selections from a uniquemember of the Heartland roots music community…. Trusten Williams.
