Will Sartain

Will Sartain is a Seattle-based indie musician known for crafting introspective, synth-tinged tunes that blend raw emotion with DIY pop sensibilities. Emerging from the Pacific Northwest's vibrant music scene, he’s built a catalog of genre-blurring tracks that balance gritty guitar riffs, nostalgic electronic textures, and candid lyrics about love, self-doubt, and everyday absurdities. Releases like "For Love" and "Automatic Body" showcase his knack for pairing moody atmospheres with sticky melodies, while playful experiments like "Bash Your Face In" and the cheekily titled "Beep!" reveal a willingness to smash conventions. Sartain often wears multiple hats as a singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, channeling influences from ’80s new wave to modern bedroom pop into his scrappy yet polished sound. His work—whether heard in the lo-fi charm of "The Listening Booth" or the driving rhythms of his recent material—feels like a late-night conversation with a friend who’s equal parts hopeful and haunted.
