Trespassers WilliamThis is a transcription I did of the Trespassers William song 'Lie In The Sound' from their album 'Different Stars'.

'Different Stars' was originally self released by the band in 2002 then re-released in 2004 under the Nettwerk label.

The band is best known for their dreamy brand of folk and for the Id stirring voice of lead singer/songwriter Anna-Lynne Williams. A voice I have tried many times to describe yet never felt I could do it justice.

If you want to hear that 'sound' everyone talks about with regard to her voice then this song and the title track from the same album are two of the most knee melting examples.
