Bio
A native of Boston, Bill was first exposed to music at an early age listening to his sister’s Debbie Gibson records. Despite this set back, Bill later studied music at Loyola University and was slated to become an opera singer, however transitioned to the Americana genre by influence of Neil Young, Ryan Adams, and Tom Petty.
Bill's music is highlighted by his unique voice and straight-forward and thoughtful lyrics. He crafts songs that are immediately enjoyable and relatable. He shows the ability to take the bittersweet moments of everyday life and make them poignant and heartbreaking. Bill’s songs sound at once familiar and fresh, sad and hopeful, simple and complex - he is a unique, honest voice that reminds the listener of an old friend.
Bill has been playing music a local venues for the past 5 years, including Club Passim and TT the Bear's. He has had the honor of recording and sharing the stage with singer/songwriter Josh Ritter. Bill is extremely excited about the release of his first record, “You Don’t Care”, which was released in 2009 with the accompaniment of the best musicians in Boston, including Zack Hickman and Austin Nevins. The release show was held at Toad in Cambridge, MA to a densely filled room. Fortunately, there were little to no Debbie Gibson covers that night.
