BILLY STONE
Billy Stone is one of those rare Texas bred singer-songwriters whose songs flow easily from country to southern-rock, from folk to rhythm and blues, from rock and roll to pin-drop quiet, crossing all borders to be Billy Stone songs.

A Dallas, Texas native and Nashville resident since the late '70s, Stone resists the tag, Nashville-Songwriter, explaining, "I don't sit around in some office on Music Row writing songs for Country Radio. I write songs for people and if a country act or rock act or whatever hears something and records it, great, but my main focus is to 'call' em as I see 'em."

Billy Stone has been "calling 'em as I see 'em" for twenty-five years in honky-tonks and bars, folk clubs, college campuses, and concert stages. His opening-act credits include such diverse artists as Willie Nelson, Joan Armatrading, Bellamy Brothers, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Guy Clark, Asleep At The Wheel, and the late Tim Hardin. Along with songwriting greats Steve Young and Dave Loggins, Billy was chosen by the Nashville Songwriters Association International to perform at their 1987 'Super Songwriters Showcase' in Nashville.

Artists who have recorded Billy's songs include The Forester Sisters, Johnny Lee, Gary Stewart, The Carter Family, Jimmy Hall and Dan Toler, Vassar Clements, Bertie Higgins, Joe Sun, Billy 'Crash' Craddock and David Frizzell.

Whether onstage alone or with his band: The Rock, Billy delivers his meat and potatoes music with wit and a certain hillbilly charm and when he sings about West Texas Sky loneliness, Grandma's Old Gas Stove nostalgia, or wails about the "mountains of mashed potatoes and so many stories to tell" from his Family Reunion, you know he's been there, and you wonder if maybe you haven't been there, too.

BILLY STONE


BILLY STONE


Billy Stone ist einer dieser seltenen texanischen Singer-Songwriter, deren Songs leicht von Country bis Südstaaten-Rock, von Folk bis Rhythm and Blues, von Rock and Roll bis Pin-Drop-Stille, über alle Grenzen hinweg zu Billy Stone-Songs fließen.
Ein in Dallas, Texas geborener und seit den späten 70er Jahren in Nashville ansässiger Stone widersteht dem Tag, Nashville-Songwriter, und erklärt: "Ich sitze nicht in irgendeinem Büro in der Music Row und schreibe Songs für Count", Radio. Ich schreibe Lieder für Menschen und wenn ein Graf'', Schauspieler oder Rock-Act oder was auch immer etwas hört und aufnimmt, großartig, aber mein Hauptaugenmerk liegt darauf, sie so zu nennen, wie ich sie sehe''sie''.

Billy Stone nennt sie seit fünfundzwanzig Jahren in Honky-Tonks und Bars, Folk-Clubs, College-Campus und Konzertbühnen. Zu seinen Vorbildern zählen so unterschiedliche Künstler wie Willie Nelson, Joan Armatrading, Bellamy Brothers, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Guy Clark, Asleep At The Wheel und der verstorbene Tim Hardin. Zusammen mit den Songwritern Steve Young und Dave Loggins wurde Billy von der Nashville Songwriters Association International ausgewählt, um 1987 bei ihrem'Super Songwriters Showcase' in Nashville aufzutreten.


Zu den Künstlern, die Billys Songs aufgenommen haben, gehören The Forester Sisters, Johnny Lee, Gary Stewart, The Carter Family, Jimmy Hall und Dan Toler, Vassar Clements, Bertie Higgins, Joe Sun, Billy'Crash' Craddock und David Frizzell.


Ob allein auf der Bühne oder mit seiner Band: The Rock, Billy Stone liefert seine Fleisch- und Kartoffelmusik mit Witz und einem gewissen Hillbilly-Charme und wenn er über die Einsamkeit des West Texas Sky singt, Omas Old Gas Stove Nostalgie, oder über die "Berge von Kartoffelpüree und so viele Geschichten zu erzählen" von seinem Familientreffen, dann weiß man, dass er da war, und man fragt sich, ob man nicht auch da war.
