Like the merging of the Mississippi and the Illinois rivers in his hometown, Billy's music has a strong current, sweeping away everything that has come before. The songs are deeply personal, but at the same time easily identifiable as experiences most everyone has had. To put it bluntly, this man will tear your heart out, adjust your attitude, leave you feeling energized, satisfied and just plain ol' good.
Few artists posses the heart and soul that Billy does. He owes much of this to his influences, which range from the southern rock of Lynyrd Skynyrd to the crooning of Keith Whitley, Garth Brooks, and Randy Travis. Don't forget the gritty, outlaw attitude of Steve Earle, Travis Tritt, and Hank Williams, Jr. Billy isn't afraid to get right to the heart of the matter, dealing with personal issues such as falling in and out of love, Harleys, whiskey, and the peace of mind that comes from being at one with the great outdoors. All of this, combined with Billy's down to earth, good ol' boy attitude, and his relationship with his ever growing fan base insure him a place at the top of the country ladder. It's only a matter of time before Billy starts winning people over by the millions. Because after all, every song tells a story, every story has a message, and every message speaks straight to the heart.

Hey Billy Boy! Miss you dude! Just wanted to stop on by and wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a most wonderful New Year. Keep Nashville in mind for 2010 during the CMA Fest okay? I am hoping we can get the whole entire gang together at that time and relive some of the most fun times. Merry Christmas!
