   About Billy Lofton


Billy was born in the United States, his musical roots go back to his gospel days in the local church he attended with his family. He is a talent with a flair for fusing cultural styles and beloved music with a fresh original and utterly unique sensibility entirely his own. BILLY LOFTON, a man with a voice like velvet.

It was in fact, his aunt who proved instrumental in moving Billy towards a career in music at the age of 14, she had taken me to an audition for the musical "Two For The Seesaw" which I auditioned for as a dancer and ended up with one of the musical parts playing a nightclub singer named "Sparkle" from there it went on to musicals such as "Godspell", Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Pippin".

At a very young age I had the opportunity to come to Australia which I am now an Australian citizen. Upon arriving in Australia, I started modelling and one day as we were rehearsing I started to singing and one thing lead to another. I got a really good chance to do my apprenticeship in the clubs, and then from there worked with renowned groups as the "Drifters" and have performed solo at many "Rage", "Leather Pride" and "Baccunalia" dance parties.

I"ve recorded a range of music including remakes and originals written and produced by myself, such songs as "Love Really Hurts Without You" cover of Billy Ocean's - "Lover Rise" which I was lucky to have selected for the Australian movie "Shotgun Wedding". I also did a vocal demo for "One Step Away" which John Farnham picked up for his "Whispering Jack" album. That was fantastic. All my songs that I write are written from the heart which is reality.

I've always been a lover of Afghan Hounds and after signing with Blue Pie Production - Director, Damien Reilly, we had been looking for a song to re-make and through the love of these dogs with legs like boots, we came up with "These Boots are made for Walking" originally performed by Nancy Sinatra. We cam up with a very upbeat version, Which I am excited about and due to be released Mid - 200 6 . The last thing we wanted to do was a tribute song or a lounge act. Billy also brings a quality entirely his own. He lives it. He bring youthful energy to it, touch and tender at the same time and like nothing else I've ever heard.

Billy and Farkaster have teamed up to create some pure dance music magic and you can't beat a cool tune with great vocals. " Baby I love your way was one of the first songs that I wanted to do and working with Farkaster has been a pure privilege. He is a musical genius and we work well together. You only have to put the track on at a club and watch the dance floor fill " Says Billy.

Yo Billy Loftonasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.

Darling
As my MySpace friend, I am including you in something exciting--we have begun to show off my new legit FEATURE FILM! NATASHA KIZMET: THE MOVIE! It has been called BORAT MEETS CANDY by the Denver Post's Bill Husted, and I want your feedback, and the feedback of your MySpace friends! You would be doing me a big favor if you would post this comment so people would know to go the the "My Videos" section of my profile to watch the trailer and the other scenes I have posted. This is my market research as to how well we have done. The film is being shopped as we speak by a major film agent, and we are entering it in Film Festivals! This is exciting, and thanks SO MUCH for your help!!

If you want to help market the film, or get on the list to order the DVD when it comes out at a discount, email me at
natasha.kizmet.the.movie@gmail.com

xoxo
Natasha



Also,my movie features a sequence with a Belly Dancing show that I did under my belly dancing alter ego of Raya--TEMPTATION OF BELLY DANCE. It has been called the most artistic and sensual live belly dance DVD ever!! Please have a look, and visit the DVDs web site!

Billy Lofton !!!

Forget about downloading our music on itunes etc... we've got something even MORE exciting.

You can now actually OWN a piece of the band. Instead of buying our cd right now - you can be a shareholder in our next one. It's a brilliant system - check it out!

http://www.sellaband.com/projects/epyllion

You pick how many shares you want to buy - and then once the album is done, you start making money! :) And of course you can back out at any time. It would be really cool to have you on board for this.
