Hi, I'm Will Crossland, a musician, software developer and beer-user from northern England. I made this site as a home for the music/software I've made, and to provide a safe space to explore frontend development away from the day job.

Music

Dry Stone Will

Dark pop, an English folk lilt and lush guitar-led backing

Socco Chico

I make some music (sometimes with Adam Parkinson) for the dancefloor

Kilclinton

Disco synth jams and drum edits with Brett Lambe
