Bill is an extraordinary singer, songwriter, pianist based in Boston whose music has been defined as Soulful, Funkified Jazz. He started playing rock and blues on the Hammond B3 organ and his first working gig was with a bar band that played the waterfront in Troy, New York in a 9 piece band that covered everyone from Chicago to Earth, Wind and Fire, to the Ohio Players (so he's dating himself here) and jam bands like The Allman Brothers, Santana and Tower of Power.

A few bands later, Bill found himself on the road with club and small venue acts. Being self taught, Bill picked up everything he could from the wide variety of the players he toured with, learning jazz fusion from a sax player he worked with from the mid-west, jazz standards from a guitarist from New York, reggae from a bassist from the West Indies, southern rock and blues from another bassist , a retired-marine from Georgia, alternative rock from a drummer and a singer he met in upstate New York, and Latin / salsa from drummer who seemed to not have a home.

He came to Boston to attend Berklee and learn more about his trade from the best. Boston is now his home, where Bill’s passionate, energetic show can be seen in many clubs and festivals.

This song fuses modal mystery with a distinct drum pattern to tell the story of a man's transition to fatherhood.

You Know Me
Life changes in an instant but can someone really know your soul? This soulful ballad is written to the one who knows me.
