"Immediately upon hearing Billy Rock Blue sing, my goal was for
us to perform together. His is the strongest vocal instrument that it
is my privilege to support since backing headliners in the Los Angeles
music industry. Accompanying Billy requires a high level of attention
to the detailed style he brings to each song. Fortunately, he attracts
top tier talent, each of whom brings a wealth of experience to their
individual roles in the ensemble. And, it is fun. Performing with Billy
is an excellent example of why musicians like to say we are playing
music. This is the stuff of great entertainment for both artists and
audience alike."

that discovered The Pointer Sisters!
