About me:
I'm a songwriter and folk singer who reads avidly and pays too much attention to politics. A year ago I married Tiffani Ginn, a beautiful woman with a big heart and phenomenal musical talent. We spend a lot of our time touring with Tiffani's sister Brit, (they are The Ginn Sisters) playing music all around the country. If you like great singing with sister harmonies and great songwriting in the Americana and Country school, you must check them out. You can find out more about that at www.billpassalacqua.com and www.theginnsisters.com. When I'm not working hard on music business, I try to get outside and walk around the Town Lake, ride my bike, fly our kite, swim in Barton Springs. Once every year or two, I go hiking in some stunning location with my friends Darin, Keith, Erik and Steve. So far we've to Copper Canyon in Mexico, The Brooks Range in Alaska, Canyonlands Nat'l Park in Utah, Escalante Nat'l Park in Utah, and in the Cascades in Washington. I come from a family band, The Poss Family Band, in Effingham, IL. My dad taught me to play guitar while I was in grad school at the Univ. of Illinois. He plays banjo, my brothers all play guitar, bass, mandolin and etc., my neices play fiddle and we all sing. We also have an uncle Fudd, Bill Martin who sits in on guitar and mandolin. My brother Matt Passalacqua has a band called Matt Poss and The Wild Bunch. If you like Country and Americana music, especially the Steve Earle/Johnny Cash end of things, check him out at www.mattposs.com.
Who I'd like to meet:
Noam Chomskey

SPAMED! Can you ever forgive me? If so, please vote for me! I am in Round Two of The TRCoA Unsigned Artist Competition. Help me get to Round Three by clicking my face and voting for me! If I’m in the top 4 I get to play a showcase for record executives and could win 100 free hours in the studio. If I were selected, it would really help me rock some faces off, please take a second and vote.
Thanks! -Ted Hadji

That kid is freaking beautiful! Are you sure you're the father? (The funnier/stranger joke is: "Are you sure Tif's the mother?" but given my lousy semester with mothers & children I tread lightly in their presence...even virutal.) Hearty congratulations. We roasted a fatted opossum in the youngun's honor.

billposs - Join us in congratulating record producer Kim Copeland for her work on the Rachel Williams album, Lonely At The Bottom. Check this great review by R.K.
Oermann with Music Row Magazine on Rachel's current single, The Only Thing Harder Than Leaving.


"She has the goods. This creeps up on you with cat’s paws. The languid pace, echoing instruments, spacious production and her hushed, aching delivery are all immensely seductive. The lyric of leaving home is full of terrific details. And her falsetto leaps in the bridge are like little daggers to the heart. A mini masterpiece. This, by the way, is the third single in a row that I have raved about from this performer.

May I borrow some of YourSpace to promote MyCdRelease?



The all new, all original CRUELTY arrives Tuesday, July 29, and I'll celebrate with a show at Austin's legendary Cactus Cafe.
It's free, aside from the $15 you'll certainly want to spend on the CD.
Raina Rose opens at 8:30 pm, then Southpaw Jones performs in his finest suit, and nothing will ever be the same.

Check out a preview track on my profile page or southpawjones. com.
Thanks for sharing YourSpace!
