spanning a solo acoustic show to an all out rock band
I grew up in rural Virginia and spent several years as a child in urban Baltimore. I love so much music from rock to classical to metal and somehow it finds its way into my songs. I just released my debut album "Green Gates" which I am selling on the road as well as itunes, cdbaby and amazon. I am preparing to record the followup to Green Gates in the next year which is geared to be a stripped down acoustic/bluesy record.
My other band Sons of Bill with my two brothers Abe and James and two friends Brian Caputo and Seth Green finished our sophmore album entitled "One Town Away". It was recorded in two weeks in the valley of Los Angeles with the amazing producer, Jim Scott (Tom Petty, Kathleen Edwards, Wilco, Whiskeytown). It is set for official release in May and followed by extensive touring.
