Will Pound is widely regarded as one of the most extraordinary harmonica players of his generation. 

Known for his breathtaking technique and unmistakable musical voice, he has carved out a unique place in the British folk scene and beyond. 

Whether performing solo, collaborating with leading artists, or appearing on major festival stages, he brings an energy and inventiveness that consistently leaves audiences astonished.

Raised in a musical family in the Midlands, Will first picked up the harmonica as a child and quickly developed a style that blends deep traditional roots with a modern, boundary‑pushing approach.

His playing is marked by speed, precision, and emotional depth, but also by a rare ability to make the instrument feel completely new.

Over the years he has expanded his repertoire to include melodeon, composition, and cross‑genre collaborations, working with everyone from folk legends to classical ensembles.

Will’s projects—such as Through the Seasons and A Day Will Come—showcase not only his virtuosity but also his curiosity about history, culture, and the stories that shape communities.

His work often explores themes of identity, migration, and tradition, all delivered with the immediacy and joy of a live session.

For those who have never seen him perform, expect a musician who combines technical brilliance with warmth, humour, and a genuine love of sharing music.

Will Pound doesn’t just play the harmonica; he transforms it, revealing possibilities most people never imagined.
