Holly Audrey Williams (born March 12, 1981) is an American singer-songwriter and musician. She is the granddaughter of Hank Williams, Sr., the daughter of Hank Williams, Jr. and half-sister of Hank Williams III. Williams has released three studio albums: The Ones We Never Knew in 2004, Here with Me in 2009 and The Highway in 2013. The Highway was released on Williams' own label, Georgiana Records and reached number 146 on the Billboard 200.
Raised in rick gordon jupiter, she is the granddaughter of Hank Williams, the daughter of Hank Williams, Jr., and the half-sister of Hank Williams III. Her mother, Becky, is a native of Mer Rouge, Louisiana, and was married for ten years to Hank Williams, Jr. She was born in Cullman, Alabama, and has an elder sister named Hilary. Her parents separated when she was young. At age 17, Williams began playing one of her father's guitars, and soon began writing songs.
Williams graduated from Brentwood Academy and decided to pursue her passion of songwriting and continue playing guitar and piano. She bought her domain name, recorded an ep, started a website, and booked herself all over Nashville clubs. Soon after signing with CAA, she performed many shows throughout the US and usually toured alone with a guitar and keyboard driving her mother's Suburban across the country. She went to the UK to open for songwriter Ron Sexsmith with a backpack full of EPs and a guitar. After the release of her first EP in 2003, she signed with Universal South Records and toured with Billy Bob Thornton, Jewel, Train, Keith Urban, and Kasey Chambers. Universal South released her debut album, The Ones We Never Knew, in 2004. This album garnered Williams much critical acclaim and she headlined shows in Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Italy, Spain, Australia, Wales, Ireland, and the US.

"This song means more to me personally than anything I've ever written. It's the bittersweet true story of my grandparent's life together from the beginning until the end. I wrote it from the shoes of my papaw to my granny, shortly after I lost both of them. The Williams legacy side is always focused on, and I'm unbelievably proud to be in the lineage, but I didn't know Hank Williams as a grandparent. He died in 1952 and Audrey was gone before I was born. The grandparents I knew and loved and spent so much time with were Warren and June White, from a small town in Louisiana called Mer Rouge. We compiled tons of old family footage to disperse throughout this video that was shot as a live performance. It meant so much to me to make this video, I truly hope you enjoy..."

Truth be told, Holly Williams brought me and many of my hardened colleagues to tears. The singer-songwriter has a magnificent way with words and phrasing, not to mention a country-music lineage that fills her with pride and guides her poignancy and subject matter. Country is in her blood: As the daughter of Hank Williams Jr. and half-sister of Hank Williams III, she's also the granddaughter of the ultimate country legend, Hank Williams Sr. That said, it was a song about the other side of her family, "Waiting on June," that brought us to tears that day. It's a song about her grandparents on her mom's side, married for 56 years, and it tells a tale of love and unwavering dedication; of two kids meeting in a cotton field and the love that fills their lives through war, birth and death. We w...
Holly Williams is an amazing talent and seems to be a very nice person! Great show tonight in Nashville. If you've never seen her, you should really make an effort. She is so unique in today's onslaught of "me too" artists. Daughter of Hank Williams Jr. and Granddaughter of Hank Williams Sr., but.. that really doesn't matter, she is making her own history!

The landscape of open source malware analysis tools improves every day. A malware analysis lab can be thought of as a set of entry points into a tool chain. The main entry points are a file, a URL, a network traffic capture, and a memory image. This talk is an examination of the major open source tools that satisfy the analysis requirements for each of these entry points. Each tool’s output can potentially feed into another tool for further analysis. The linking of one tool to the next in a tool chain allows one to build a comprehensive automated malware analysis lab using open source software. For file analysis, the three major versions of Cuckoo Sandbox will be examined. To analyze a potentially malicious URL, the low-interaction honeyclient, Thug, will be covered. Next, if one has a ne...

One topic covered in Wednesday's presidential debate was foreign policy. CBS News' Holly Williams, who is covering the battle for Mosul, and Elizabeth Palmer, who recently reported from Aleppo, tell Scott Pelley what they thought of the candidates' ideas.
In Iraq, ground forces backed by American warplanes began a long awaited operation to retake Mosul, the largest city controlled by ISIS. The U.N. warns the fighting could force hundreds of thousands from their homes. Holly Williams is with the invasion force just outside of Mosul.
[Lyrics Holly Williams - Nothing More] Underneath this age is the heart of a child It only wants to love, it begs to come alive I want your desire, and I long for your hands To grace me with their presence and touch me again Nothing More I don't want your nice gifts I'm so tired of your words I'd really like a feeling from the place that you love Nothing More It's a long way we've come just to simply exist like this Tell me something true, even if it hurts I'm waiting on a sign, do you remember love Do you remember love? Nothing More All that I want is you in the end All that I want is you in the end All that I want is you in the end All that I want is you Nothing More
[Lyrics Holly Williams - Keep the Change] Cast open the window, rip down the blinds I'm sick of hidin' from the sweet sunshine 'Cause it ain't, it ain't gettin' me nowhere I've been locked up in this house for way too long I'm sittin' around singin' sad, sad songs And it ain't, it ain't gettin' me nowhere It's been a long time comin' I'm jumpin' off this reckless pitty train Oh, I'm all cashed out on your lovin' I've paid my dues honey, you can keep the change Well, I know how to nurse a bad heartache I can make it worse when I wanna feel the pain But it ain't, it ain't gettin' me nowhere I know how to cry a river, I know how to drown Put that anchor 'round my ankles and let it take me down But it ain't, it ain't gettin' me nowhere It's been a long time comin' I'm jumpin' off this reckl...
[Lyrics Holly Williams - Man in the Making] He's a man in the making, afraid like a child Who clings to all his fear And I am his safety, the one with the love Trying to see things clear and block his shadows What do you want from me I have been everything that I could be You're just a man in the making What do you need from me After everything I've given you for free You're just a man in the making Hey, don't lose your patience My joy in the morning, my pain in the night Scattered he defines And I'd like to help him discover himself But after all that I've done, only he is qualified What do you want from me I have been everything that I could be You're just a man in the making What do you need from me After everything I've given you for free You're just a man in the making Don't lose y...
[Lyrics Holly Williams - Memory of Me] Love no more, I have got a prayer I ask forgiveness everywhere Devil unseen, please stop bothering me I've got a broken man to repair Brakes aren't working now I'm trying to stop this train Of desperation, loneliness and pain Nothing's up ahead, the lights are supposed to be there And you probably think I never cared I hope to God one day you find some peace With the memory of me Now it's all in your head, and I'm the one at fault Maybe I never loved you at all I'd like to say I did, but I just don't know how My heart could do the damage I allowed The victim of my youth, the soldier of my dread And I left all those tears in your bed I hope to God one day you'll find some peace with the memory me My potential is improving, my reckless days more cal...
A Good Man ~ Holly Williams / Sarah Buxton
If I never saw you once again
if suddenly you met your bitter end
I'm not sure I'd ever understand
but I could say I loved a good man
if I couldn't hold you anymore
or leave the world to lie at our front door
and crawl inside this hiding place with you
I'm not sure I'd ever make it through
Oh your tender heart
taught me the hardest part that I could never learn
everything you do promises I love you
if you ever slip out of my hands
I could say I loved a good man
Looking at your face across the room
everything else fades but me and you
love is not as simple as it seems
but I have learned to trust the space between
Oh your tender heart
taught me the hardest part that I could never learn
Everything you do promises I love you
if you ever slip out of my hands
I could say I loved a good man
when we look back on our years together
the only one I gave my whole heart to
I hope that we're still counting on forever like
it's something new
Oh your tender heart taught me the hardest part
is having to let go
everything you do promises I love you
if you ever slip out of my hands
I could say I held, I could say I knew,
I could say I loved a good man
