- Inaugural recipient of the Cobalt Prize (2015), a contemporary blues composition award presented at the annual Maple Blues Award. "The prize composition was ‘Hwy 17’ from the album ‘For The Light‘ that speaks to the incomprehensible issue of the near 1200 Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women."
"It is absolutely inspiring to hear these artistic people make such luminous musical statements." -Winnipeg Free Press

"Prince all by himself is a force to be reckoned with." -The Manitoban
"William Prince draws musical inspiration from long relationships, deep voices and Johnny Cash. His voice and songs evoke Leonard Cohen, Willie Nelson, and more than a dash of Barry White, and he is a rising star on the Indigenous music scene." -CBC Radio. (He was often featured on CBC national radio in 2017.)
-William just returned from Nashville where he recorded with Dave Cobb, the man who produced two albums that won Grammys a few weeks ago (Chris Stapleton and Sturgill Simpson).
