Someone ranting and singing on a naked electric guitar. A lot like Billy Bragg.
Born 1985, discovered the Clash 1998 and Billy Bragg the following year. ***
Played guitar and bass in cover bands (Magnitudo 8.7, The Spitfires, Cherry Coke), before joining Oi! band The Psychokids in 2001 as a bassist and lead singer. *** After the Psychokids split up in 2002 Billie formed, with former bandmates Butcher and O'Reele, the street-punk band Korova Milkbar, where he was bassist and background singer. *** The band disbanded in February 2004, and in november Billie formed another punk-rock band, the Clash-inspired Pressure Drop A.K.A., as a bassist and lead singer. *** After attending a Pogues gig in Glasgow in December 2006, Pressure Drop A.K.A. turned to a folkier approach, with Billie switching from bass to rhythm guitar and former Magnitudo 8.7-Spitfires-Cherry Coke guitarist Naska filling in at the bass. *** Pressure Drop A.K.A. still exist, though are temporarily not active. You can find them at http://www.myspace.com/pressuredropstout . *** Tired of being musically not active, Billie decided to go solo, following the steps of his major influencer Billy Bragg. *** Apart from singing and playing guitar, Billie is a fond rugby player and sports journalist.
