About the Artist
Billy has been writing and performing for close to thirty years. Born in Westerly, RI, early musical exposure came through his dad who sang in the USO during WW II with Perry Como.
Then came the obligatory 60's college band, and then tenor in a Cappella doo-wop quartet The Hudsons. Presently Billy is front man and plays guitar, harp and percussion for Classic Rock band New York Minute performing in local venues and regionally in venues like Dick's Last Resort in Boston and The House of Blues on Sunset Strip in Los Angeles.
During the day he is a partner in a local ad agency where he has written numerous ads and radio commercials (A commercial music video recently received national recognition when it won a Telly award).
Billy lives on a Pond in West Kingston Rhode Island with his wife Maureen, 2 dogs, 3 cats and a family of Canadian Geese and, at last count, 473 rainbow trout.
He is a member of ASCAP, Nashville Songwriters Association, Rhode Island Songwriters Association.
Product Description
Billy' Mitchell's songs are inspired by the whimsy of Jimmy Buffett, the wit of Shel Silverstein, the eccentricity of John Prine with a dash of Spike Jones thrown in for good measure. "Billy's music is like a trip to Key West via "The Twilight Zone"; great fun, full of musical surprises." says Ed Dillon, former touring member of The Clancy Brothers (Irish Folk legends).
The songs were written during a stay on the Gulf of Mexico's Florida coast and not only captured the carefree spirit of the region, but reflect Billy's "the glass is half-full" philosophy. The 12 song ebut CD of original songs spans genres from Beach tunes, to Bluegrass, to Folk, R & B and Country. The songs are classic lyric based, story songs written from an angst-free, post adolescent point of view. Not to be taken seriously, the CD is full of serious fun. "What's so Bad About Feelin' Good?" was produced at Ark Studios in Fairhaven, MA and features 14 guest musicians.
