Whitherward is the partnership between singer-songwriters Ashley E. Norton and Edward A. Williams. Founded in Nashville in December of 2013, the duo has built a catalog of varied, intricate songs that explore the effects of the human condition. Beginning their career together in the writer's rounds of Nashville, Ash and Ed grew into a full-time touring duo with a move out west to Denver in late 2014.

After a stint along the I-25 corridor, the pair decided to hit the road and not look back, embarking on several multi-week tours across the country, through cities such as San Diego, Phoenix, San Francisco, Seattle, Omaha, St. Louis, and many, many more. Their hard-hitting lyrical style, supported by thunderous vocals and guitars, bring a new dimension to the indie folk world.

Francesca Tamellini	10/14/2017 10:29:50 AM I was talking about 'Teeth'.
Francesca Tamellini	10/14/2017 10:28:28 AM This is my favourite of all the tracks you have here. The dark side to it and the voice seeming to find a new freedom with the seductive guitar seem to me to let loose a talent that is subdued in other places. This builds like a creeping menace slipping out of the darkness, hesitates, then springs.
WWMM Michael	9/30/2017 6:57:06 PM Hey there sweet Ashley and groovy Edward! I can't begin to tell you how special to me that Wednesday 9/27/17 and Thursday 9/28/17 was and always shall be. Yes I can, I already have; in person in the hotel, in the Hyundai, in the restaurant, outside, in the Tavern, via e-mail, and Facebook, both public and private. And now here on your artist page in IMP. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. You both now occupy a very large hall in my heart that is forever haunted by you! I LOVE YOU both so much that it almost hurts. But it would hurt so good. Your Whitherward Music Monster Michael. WWMM Michael (2 heart emojis)
