Williams has played live with KT Tunstall, Ray Lamontagne and Martha Wainwright.

New project The Pond sees her team up with Simon Edwards, the bass great (who has played with Billy Bragg and was a founding member of Fairground Attraction) and Ginny Clee.

They will be at the Glee Club, Cardiff, on Sunday, October 21.
