Izzy also brings up Will’s upcoming role as a support act for the legendary Jools Holland on part of his UK tour.
Will expresses his excitement and disbelief at this opportunity, describing it as an incredible honor to perform alongside such an iconic figure in music.

This rekindling of passion highlights his dedication to artistic expression and the transformative power of music in his life.
