Standing out from the pop and punk that dominate the sunny southern california music scene, trespassers william create their own brand of melancholy and ethereal music more suited for overcast days and quiet nights.
The music is rooted in the singer-songwriter tradition with touches of indie, folk, shoegaze and dreampop.

Formed in 1997, the band has two records:"anchor" (1999) and "different stars"(2002/03).
