Billy can play solo for your event and accompany myself with guitar and occasionally harmonica. He plays for weddings, parties, wine tastings, anniversary celebrations, and the like. I can provide music in the background or help with emcee duties.

Los Angeles based singer-songwriter Billy Woodson was born and raised in California and being from the Golden State, he was brought up on the sound of the Eagles, CSN&Y, Jackson Browne, Joni Mitchell, and other artistic denizens of Laurel Canyon. That sound, as well as big doses of Beatles, The Rolling Stones and other British invasion artists help influence his own song writing style.

In his formative years, Billy fronted Orange County power rockers Sleeper who produced only commercial release "Mine Tonight", a three-song EP. But they were much more successful as a live act playing as many as twenty shows a month. Some shows found them opening for contemporaries Van Halen and 60's legends Steppenwolf.

Billy's calling for alternate forms of the creative arts took him to architecture school and a career in design. After some years Billy teamed up with long time friend and guitarist Steve Gage and formed the seminal British blues rock band English Motorbike. Their first release, Lonely Road, garnered international attention and invitation to open shows for some of their rock heroes - Johnny Winter, The Zombies, Men at Work, The Blasters and Eric Burdon, among many others.

Recently, Billy has fronted several Southern California rock bands including The Time Tunnels, Vinyl O.D. and The Struggle. But he is comfortably at home with an acoustic guitar, harmonica and a small audience with a presentation that has been called both intimate and bodacious.
