Try to dig up some dirt on Noe’l Williams and you won’t get far. The Orlando singer-songwriter has a Twitter account, sure, but only eleven Tweets total, the last dating back to May. She’s got a profile on YouTube with a couple playlists, and, of course, an OurStage profile. After that, the trail runs cold. So let’s be happy with what we do have”two tracks that showcase this gamine’s sensitive, upbeat indie folk. Brown Bag begins with the tinny rustle of tambourine, acoustic strums and Williams’s warm warble. With lyrics steeped in seasonal imagery, Williams takes the listener through the cycle of a relationship. On Song With No Name, the singer ups the reverb for a more layered, rousing melody. Together, these songs give you just a whiff of William’s songwriting talent”but it’s enough to leave you wanting more.
