Billy has been a lifelong musician starting at age 6 with private instruction and continuing into adulthood. Some highlights of his career are being in a band that toured the large festivals circuit and that he was a 5-time semifinalist at the International Blues Competition in Memphis, Tennessee. Along the way, he shared the stage as an opener for the likes of Joe Bonamassa, Delbert McClinton, Indigineous, and Bo Diddley to name a few. Eventually he settled down and began playing in cover bands on lead guitar and drums before scaling back even more to do solo acoustic shows. These days he is joined by his wife Kimberly (Berl) on percussion and vocals to create an upbeat, family friendly, diverse show proven to please all crowds.
