Treasure Seeker is the tenth album from jazz vocalist Gary Williams and his first as singer-songwriter. Recorded at Kenilworth Studios in 2018, all songs are co-written with Jonathan Nickoll. It was recorded with full big band and a jazz combo.
Interviewed in the Grimsby Telegraph, Williams said the album's title track was inspired by an article in the newspaper in January 1985, where a 14-year-old Williams showed off his obscure collectables and curiosities.
Nick Wakeman reviewing for Musical Theatre Review gave the album 5 stars and said, "...why did I constantly play this album on repeat for about three hours? ...it may have something to do with the silky-smooth tones of Gary Williamsâ voice rendering songs I had never heard before but I am sure I will be hearing a lot more of in the near future"
Jazz critic Michael Ferber said, "This album is of outstanding excellenceâ¦"
