Will Minton has more than 25 years of marketing experience in the consumer goods, foodservice, and entertainment industries, most recently serving as the chief marketing officer of Breakout Learning, an education technology company. Before that, he spent 15 years leading communications and business development teams at Advantage Solutions (Nasdaq: ADV) and spearheaded groundbreaking marketing initiatives at Taco Bell, including the creation of Mountain Dew Baja Blast, the first chain-exclusive soft drink in the quick-service restaurant industry.

While Will has built a rewarding career in marketing, his true passion has always been songwriting. He began writing and performing his own songs in college, continuing to perform in New York City and Los Angeles before stepping back to focus on his career and family. Over the years, he occasionally picked up his guitar to share original songs at company events and family gatherings. Recently, he’s returned to the stage in Southern California with renewed focus and enthusiasm for his music.

Known for blending clever humor with heartfelt storytelling, Will’s songs reflect on family, resilience, and uplifting stories. He is currently working on recording his new material and sharing his music more widely. Follow @willmintonmusic on Instagram for updates.
