The Cotillions is the country-folk solo project of American musician William Patrick Corgan, best known as the frontman of the alternative rock band, The Smashing Pumpkins. Corgan's unmistakable voice and songwriting style, often characterized by introspective lyricism and complex melodies, translate to a more stripped-down, acoustic sound in The Cotillions. His debut album under this moniker, released in 2019, showcases influences from traditional American folk, country, and blues. Despite its departure from Corgan's rock roots, The Cotillions continues his legacy of innovative songcraft and emotional resonance.
