Kyle Williams has renewed his long-term agreement with Centricity Publishing. He first signed with the company in 2018.
Originally from Oklahoma, Williams is a multi-genre songwriter, producer and instrumentalist, and is lead guitarist for the band We Are Messengers. He also releases his own solo projects as Willyecho and Kyle and the clouds. He has writing and production credits on six No. 1 singles, including “See Me Through It” by Brandon Heath and “The Goodness” by TobyMac (feat. Blessing Offor). His additional No. 1s include “Light It Up” (Terrian), “Enough” (Social Club Misfits), “You Are Loved” (Stars Go Dim) and “This World Is Not My Home” (Branan Murphy).
He has also co-written and produced three top 5 singles for We Are Messengers –“This Is Jesus,” “Love” and “Power”– and has production and songwriting credits with Cochren & Co., Tasha Layton, Jonny Diaz and Jason Gray. Along with his success in the Christian realm, Williams has collaborated with Rob Thomas, Marc Broussard, Cassadee Pope, Heather Morgan, Erika Ender, and many others.
In 2019, he was on NBC’s Songland and won the episode with Aloe Blacc as the guest judge. Blacc recorded and released the song Williams co-wrote and performed on the show, “Getting Started,” which also landed in the end credits in the movie, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. Williams has also had other synch placements with various songs on ABC’s How To Get Away with Murder, NBC’s Chicago Fire, and UFC and Fox Sports promos.
“I’ve always felt like the folks at Centricity were family from the beginning,” says Williams. “I’m truly excited to further this relationship and my career.”
“We absolutely love working with Kyle,” adds Chad Segura, Centricity Publishing’s Vice President. “Whether he’s wearing the hat of songwriter, producer or artist, or some combo of the three, he always delivers at a ridiculously high level. We’re so honored to partner with him and can’t wait to see what this next chapter holds in store for us all.”
