Redfield EP |
Press Release reports: Singer songwriter Billy
Redfield is not new to writing acoustic melodies. Since the age of 14 Billy
has been playing guitar for friends and family whenever an opportunity
arose. What began as an afternoon hobby has grown to a full out passion,
and is directly reflected in his stand out debut EP. While Billy has too
many influences to list, his sound comes through as one all his own. His
rich, subtle vocals blend perfectly with his catchy yet intricate melodies.
In addition to bringing along on producers Chris Keup (Jason Mraz, Josh
Kelly, Jonathan Rice) and producer/engineer Stewart Myers (Lifehouse, Rachel
Yamagata, Liz Phair), and a full band Redfield has created an EP that will
indeed make you smile. - Click
