Will Downing is an American singer, songwriter, and producer. He was born on 1963, Brooklyn, New York.

Downing's recording career has won a loyal audience of contemporary jazz and R&B fans with albums and concerts that have showcased his rich baritone vocals and unique interpretations of R&B and pop classics that stretches back to the early 1980s.

In 1988 Downing signed a recording contract with 4th & Broadway Records, and his first solo album, “Will Downing”, was released that same year. The critics singled out Downing's version of the John Coltrane classic jazz piece “A Love Supreme” as one of its highlights. It reaches to No. 4 on the Billboard Charts. Downing stayed with 4th & Broadway for just one album and switched to Island Records for his second release, “Come Together As One”, in 1989. Like his first album, “Come Together As One” was a pop- and dance-oriented collection of R&B songs that also reflected Downing's love of jazz.

Switching labels to Mercury Records for his fourth outing, 1993's “Love's the Place to Be”, Downing scored his best-selling album to date with about 235,000 copies sold in the United States and over 300,000 copies in Great Britain.

In 2002 he received the International Association of African-American Music Diamond Award.
