Billy Webster

For Billy Webster, the personal is spiritual, and that implicit creed infuses his music, which careens like his voice from the earthly to the celestial and everything in between in a single instant. Billy sings the whole of being, the entirety of loving, and the illuminating joy of music, especially rock and roll. Billy’s wide-ranging influences resonate through his work with celebratory deference. Rock and roll is a cathedral built by sacrificial geniuses stone upon stone, reaching from the body through the heart and into the freeing heavens. And yet these sounds are lovingly integrated in Webster into a unique, signature voice, an instantly legendary presence, one who places his own perfect stone with stunning virtuosity, playful gravitas, and loving defiance into the towering keep of this sacred upreach. Billy is a restless angel indeed, giving himself over with the gravity of grace wholeheartedly to love and music, and boldly calling creation likewise to account. - Ethan Dunn
