William Jack is an Australian multi-style cellist and songwriter, based in London. He is best known for incorporating his jazz guitar background into an unconventional style of cello playing, with a passion for breaking boundaries between genres and cultures.

He has recently performed his solo compositions from his debut album 'This Old Cello Box' live on BBC Radio 3 at the Edinburgh Fringe, and was selected to perform as a 'New Folk' songwriter at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas.
He has been fortunate to work with numerous world-renowned artists, both as a session musician and collaborator. William is passionate about redefining the possibilities of the cello and bringing the instrument into new territories.
