William Fitzsimmons (born in 1978) is an American indie and folk singer-songwriter and musician known for his candid and emotive songwriting, hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U.S.

Fitzsimmons’ childhood was spent immersed in his family’s musical home, making his initial creative excursion playing the piano and later the trombone and guitar. As he progressed through school the growing musician learned to play the banjo, mandolin, the ukulele, and melodica, as Fitzsimmons explored his fascination with instruments and sounds. During his time studying for a Master’s Degree in counselling from Geneva College, the singer-songwriter crafted a DIY collection of songs which later became his debut album.

Hailed by critics for its candid, retrospective and personal approach Fitzsimmons’ debut “Until When We Are Ghosts” arrived in 2005. Like its predecessor, his sophomore “Goodnight” (2006) was also independently produced and recorded using the singer’s home equipment. 2008’s “The Sparrow And the Crow” became Fitzsimmons’ first studio album, earned a wave of positive review, and later won iTunes U.S.’s Best Singer/Songwtier Album of 2008. Regularly drawing comparisons to the brutal honesty of Iron & Wine and Sufjan Stevens’ output, Fitzsimmons’ music has been widely used in TV dramas which utilise its powerful and emotive qualities. The exposure afforded the singer as a result of the high-profile appearances on “Grey’s Anatomy”, “Brothers & Sisters”, and “Army Wives” among others, has greatly increased Fitzsimmons’ popularity.

The EP “Derivatives” arrived in 2010, followed by the 2011 full-length “Gold in the Shadow” which features vocals from Julia Stone of Angus and Julia Stone. The singer worked with Death Cab for Cutie’s Chris Walla to produce his subsequent “Lions” LP in 2014, which was succeeded by the mini-LP “Pittsburgh” in 2015.

Live reviews

With an alluring sense of kindness and vulnerability, William Fitzsimmons has the ability to instil the most perfect kind of silence at one of his concerts.

Now don’t get me wrong here. I love belting out the words to my favourite tracks being performed by my favourite artists as much as the choir of drowning cats that seems to enjoy serving as my backing singers, but there are some concerts where you just sit tight, shut up and lose yourself entirely to the beautiful music that’s about to dance through your ears.

It’s amazing the man is still standing after what he has overcome throughout his life, but the fact that he shares that in his music through songs like “Everything Has Changed”, “If You Would Come Back Home” and “Beautiful Girl” truly pulls you in and is beautifully soundtracked by him and his band.

While it would be a rare thing to see Caitlin Crosby joining him on tracks like “After Afterall”, he still plays them in such a way which not only intrigue you by their subtle “live” variations, but you get to experience the raw feel that’s meant to accompany the song with all its plucked note intricacies and quietly delivered melodies. Did I mention he also does a wicked cover of “I Kissed A Girl”? Nailed it. *Drops Mic*

This was my first ever gig, but it sure was a great way to begin!

Fitzsimmons is fantastic playing live - I'd say even better so than in the studio - and was perfectly accompanied for many songs by the extremely talented Abby Gundersen. They worked together very well. The church setting probably enhanced the "acoustics" as well I guess, but well done to them for choosing a good place to play.

Between playing a good range of songs new and old, William chatted to the audience a little and turned out to be a really interesting and entertaining guy to listen to. He was very pleasant.

Any complaints? Not really, I suppose merch was a bit limited, but I'd struggle to make any proper complaints. Even the supporting act was decent.

Thanks William and Abby - a brilliant show!

Last night's show at Shank Hall was amazing. William played a great mix of old and new (Pittsburgh)songs. We we fortunate enough to be right at the stage so it wa super special for us. His struggles with his electric guitar were pretty funny. Also a fan requested he play Josie and he brought h up on stage to help out with the guitar. William is incredible personable. They highlight of our night (besides of course) his beautiful (yet sad) songs was most definitely getting the chance to talk with him for a bit after the show. A real genuine guy.wish I was going to The City Winery tonight to catch another set.

This was a fun show, and free! The Magic Rat is a tough room because it's long and skinny and the stage doesn't face most of the people in the room. But that's not his fault! The openers, Jim and Sam, had such a great sense of humor and amazing harmony. They were lovely. And then William Fitzsimmons was just his quiet self. Didn't talk to us at all, just played his music. Small venue, which is nice. His voice is incredible and his songs give me "feels" and I just really enjoyed it! Cute merch too!

Is it possible that hearing his music live is BETTER than his recordings? YES! He sounded so awesome I thought what a shame this isn't being recorded for a live album...however, being that his latest CD is a live performance from Chicago, it's not surprising that his live shows are so spot on perfect.

If you yearn for "folk-style" music, you've hit pay-dirt with William Fitzsimmons. He's pure gold!

Nous avons fait 500 Km pour aller voir William et nous n'avons pas été déçus.

Je sais que c'est un peu fou mais comme les chances de le voir près de chez nous sont à peu près nulles, nous avons saisi l'occasion.

Nous avons été charmés par sa "zénitude" qui s'est imposée à l'audience comme si nous avions été à la messe.

What an amazing gig! Starting with Joshua Radin and ending with Tom Petty's learn to fly in the middle of the crowd!!

I even bumped into the guys right after the Show on the street where we had a little chat and I got the guitar pic from Joshua!!

just amazing as always!

I've seen him 4 times now and he never disappoints, ever! this time was in a church and he still managed to be usual self with less cursing! he's just fantastic, genuine and unbelievably funny guy!

Concert was cancelled last minute due to him being ill. They sent out an email and said refunds should be coming soon. Super bummed about it, though. I was really looking forward to the show. Hope to catch him next time.

I liked it even more than I thought I would.

Such gentle singing, but so powerful, by both William and Ally.

And William is hilarious, so it was like a 2 for 1 show; Music, and stand-up comedy btwn songs.

Share this Fact:

For the first time Rosatom Fuel Division supplied fresh nuclear fuel to the world’s only floating nuclear cogeneration plant in the Arctic

The fuel was supplied to the northernmost town of Russia along the Northern Sea Route.

The first in the history of the power plant refueling, that is, the replacement of spent nuclear fuel with fresh one, is planned to begin before 2024. The manufacturer of nuclear fuel for all Russian nuclear icebreakers, as well as the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, is Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC), a company of Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL that is based in Elektrostal, Moscow Region.

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactors of the icebreaking type. Unlike convenient ground-based large reactors (that require partial replacement of fuel rods once every 12-18 months), in the case of these reactors, the refueling takes place once every few years and includes unloading of the entire reactor core and loading of fresh fuel into the reactor.

The cores of KLT-40 reactors of the Akademik Lomonosov floating power unit have a number of advantages compared to the reference ones: a cassette core was used for the first time in the history of the unit, which made it possible to increase the fuel energy resource to 3-3.5 years between refuelings, and also reduce the fuel component of the electricity cost by one and a half times. The FNPP operating experience formed the basis for the designs of reactors for nuclear icebreakers of the newest series 22220. Three such icebreakers have been launched by now.

For the first time the power units of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant were connected to the grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020. The supply of nuclear fuel from Elektrostal to Pevek and its loading into the second reactor is planned for 2024. The total power of the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, supplied to the coastal grid of Pevek without thermal energy consumption on shore, is about 76 MW, being about 44 MW in the maximum thermal power supply mode. The FNPP generated 194 million kWh according to the results of 2023. The population of Pevek is just a little more than 4 thousand, while the FNPP has a potential for supplying electricity to a city with a population of up to 100 thousand people. After the FNPP commissioning two goals were achieved. These include first of all the replacement of the retiring capacities of the Bilibino NPP, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya TPP, which has already been operating for more than 70 years. Secondly, energy is supplied to the main mining companies in western Chukotka in the Chaun-Bilibino energy hub a large ore and metal cluster, including gold mining companies and projects related to the development of the Baimsk ore zone. In September 2023, a 110 kilovolt power transmission line with a length of 490 kilometers was put into operation, connecting the towns of Pevek and Bilibino. The line increased the reliability of energy supply from the FNPP to both Bilibino consumers and mining companies, the largest of which is the Baimsky GOK. The comprehensive development of the Russian Arctic is a national strategic priority. To increase the NSR traffic is of paramount importance for accomplishment of the tasks set in the field of cargo shipping. This logistics corridor is being developed due regular freight voyages, construction of new nuclear-powered icebreakers and modernization of the relevant infrastructure. Rosatom companies are actively involved in this work. Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL (Rosatom Fuel Division) includes companies fabricating nuclear fuel, converting and enriching uranium, manufacturing gas centrifuges, conducting researches and producing designs. As the only nuclear fuel supplier to Russian NPPs, TVEL supplies fuel for a total of 75 power reactors in 15 countries, for research reactors in nine countries, as well as for propulsion reactors of the Russian nuclear fleet. Every sixth power reactor in the world runs on TVEL fuel. Rosatom Fuel Division is the world’s largest producer of enriched uranium and the leader on the global stable isotope market. The Fuel Division is actively developing new businesses in chemistry, metallurgy, energy storage technologies, 3D printing, digital products, and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. TVEL also includes Rosatom integrators for additive technologies and electricity storage systems. Rosenergoatom, Joint-Stock Company is part of Rosatom Electric Power Division and one of the largest companies in the industry acting as an operator of nuclear power plants. It includes, as its branches, 11 operating NPPs, including the FNPP, the Scientific and Technical Center for Emergency Operations at NPPs, Design and Engineering as well as Technological companies. In total, 37 power units with a total installed capacity of over 29.5 GW are in operation at 11 nuclear power plants in Russia. Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC, Elektrostal) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of fuel for nuclear power plants. The company produces fuel assemblies for VVER-440, VVER-1000, RBMK-1000, BN-600,800, VK-50, EGP-6; powders and fuel pellets intended for supply to foreign customers. It also produces nuclear fuel for research reactors. The plant belongs to the TVEL Fuel Company of Rosatom.

Rosatom obtained a license for the first land-based SMR in Russia

On April 21, Rosenergoatom obtained a license issued by Rostekhnadzor to construct the Yakutsk land-based SMR in the Ust-Yansky District of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

ROSATOM and FEDC agree to cooperate in the construction of Russia's first onshore SNPP

ROSATOM and FEDC have signed a cooperation agreement to build Russia's first onshore SNPP in Yakutia.

Rosatom develops nuclear fuel for modernized floating power units

Rosatom has completed the development of nuclear fuel for the RITM-200S small modular reactor designed for the upgraded floating power units.

• 2/17 – “Vienna” Out Now!

The Stranger by Billy Joel has been one of my favorite records since I first heard it during my high school years, on an old cassette tape in my friend’s basement, on a secondhand boombox. I had only recently picked up the guitar and was learning how to play simple songs, and something about the beautiful but complicated melodies he used blew me away. Much of the subject matter was lost on me: what did a sheltered teenager know about big city life and tumultuous romantic relationships! But his ability to transport you to far away places; back alleys in New York City or charming Italian restaurants, felt so attractive to my yet inexperienced mind. Years later I had the great joy of seeing him play many of those songs at Madison Square Garden and I felt like that young kid hearing it all for the first time again. I chose to cover “Vienna” because it’s a perfect union of melody and writing. It brings comfort and sweetness, but also longing and a lovely sense of movement. For many years it’s been a song that can always make me feel just a little bit better no matter what. Listen to the song here: https://williamfitzsimmons.ffm.to/vienna
