Hank Williams LLL | Hank William’s Grandson

Hank Williams was at the peak of his career as a country singer from 1950 to 1951. All the songs he released during his early years charted and made his name well-known across the country. Among his best singles were Long Gone Lonesome Blues, Your Cheatin’ Heart, and Lovesick Blues. Though his career had its ups and downs, he was still regarded as one of the best country singers and songwriters of his time. His talent had been passed on to his son, Hank Williams Jr., and his grandson, Hank Williams III.


Hank Williams III continued the Williams’ legacy by being a singer himself. He has been making his own brand of music even though the roots of his grandfather’s songs still linger in his blood. He gives credit to his father, Hank Williams Jr. as well as his grandfather who he did not get to hang out with since the original died when he was just four years old. Recently, Williams III released a cover song after eight years since his last album.
