Hi, my name is Billy!
I have played many roles in my life including a soldier, janitor, security guard, telemarketer, musician, A&R guy, operations manager, t-shirt salesman, music school manager, stray voltage detective, social media manager and more recently brand manager.
I have been to 48 of the 50 states of America (I’m looking at you Alaska and Hawaii) and every major city (Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, etc.) – many of them multiple times. I have moved over 25 times, living in Germany, both U.S. coasts, and the south. I have traveled to Mexico, Canada, France, The Bahamas, England, Africa, Israel, and Ireland. I get around.
In the nineties, I was in a band called Blenderhead which released three albums. You can check those out on Spotify and iTunes. In 2015 I released Bottle Breaker, which is my tour journal from our 1995 U.S. tour with MxPx.
My new band is called Spoken In Tongues. Our debut album was called The Nail That Sticks Up Will Be Hammered Down and was released in 2019. You can get limited edition vinyl, CD’s, and more at Planet Fun. It is also available on BandCamp, Spotify, Apple Music, and other sites. Our second album, The Light At The End Of The Tunnel Is A Black Hole, was released in late 2021 along with the Ghosts covers EP and Tow Truck single (re-imagined Blenderhead tracks). Our 3rd record The Unreal And The Hyperreal Happening At Once was released on the last day of 2022.
From 2014 to 2022, I hosted, produced, and edited over 100 episodes of the podcast Urban Achiever.
In 2021, I graduated from Montclair State University with a Bachelor of Arts, magna cum laude, in Public Relations.
I look forward to hearing from anybody who wants to communicate with me.
Stay Punk!
Billy
