Bill started playing Guitar at 14. In 10th grade he and his friends started a band called Southern Exposure and played throughout high school in the Murphy, North Georgia and East Tennessee areas. They played restaurants, graduations, and special event venues. While in college, he played guitar and sang for a country band and played throughout Sylva, Waynesville and Asheville. He now plays solo, writes material now and then, but prefers performing established songs. People relate better to songs they grew up with or are familiar with already he explains.
