Shean Williams Inspires Us
Shean Williams Shean Williams grew up in Cambridge to a loving, Christian family, son of the well known Bishop Lynwall Williams. Shean’s musical talents were recognised from an early age and growing up in church gave him the opportunities to develop his love for gospel music, appearing on the West End Stage with the National Youth Music Theatre.

He was the 1996 winner of the BBC Pebble Mill Song for Christmas, runner up of Stars in their Eyes and back-up for well known pop-groups like Westlife.

In 2005 he had a major musical breakthrough securing a record deal with Colombia Records.

A former student of the Netherhall School, in Cambridge, Shean is an inspiration to many young people and his confidence continues to radiate and encourage others to persevere and never give up on their dreams.

Shean has now recorded over 20 tracks, traveling throughout the United States, South Africa and Japan.
