Billy J White

Pure disbelief came to mind when Billy J. White opened his mouth to sing.
Hes from Burlington, Ontario? More like Nashville, Tennessee! Not a lot
of Canadian artists can carry off the southern drawl like White did
that evening.

Burlington, Ontario's based Billy J White is blazing his own trail in the country scene.

With musical influences ranging from Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Craig
Morgan, and Tracy Byrd, Billy also resonates with the vocal prowess and
extraordinary songwriting and piano perfection skills of Elton John.
Asked, what comes first the melody or the lyrics, the scales tip toward
the lyrics as songs are always in my head.

His new EP, DAMN FOOL THING TO DO, produced by multi-award winner,
Tom McKillip is high-octane, and heartfelt. Consisting of seven sensational
tracks, current singles including Saturday Night and Keep Them Kisses
Comin' have received widespread national radio play. Tracked by Anya Wilson Publicity
and Promotion, Billy completed his first Western radio
tour in the fall of 2013, carving out new relationships at radio and
with fans.

Nominated for CMAO Male Artist of the Year (2013), Billy has lit up stages with
his high energy keep rockin it country style performances. He has
opened for The Stellas, Deric Ruttan, Gil Grand, Tim Taylor, and Diane Chase
and performed at Burlingtons Sound of Music Festival, Manitoulin
Country Fest, Country in the Woods, NSAI Tin Pan North, and Ontario
based fairs.

Whether commanding his audiences acoustically or with a full band, in the true
country tradition of great male vocalists such as George Strait, Alan Jackson
and even a little Travis Tritt, Billy encompasses the brilliance
of todays best.

If you dont find Billy singing, songwriting, or playing guitar, then look
for him under the nearest hot-rod, whistling and wrenching.
