Over the last 20 years, I’ve appeared on over 50 albums, toured globally with some of the top names in jazz and my sound is captured in a sample pack (“Straight Ahead Jazz Drums”). Performance Credits include: Village Vanguard (NYC), Blue Note (NYC, Milan and Beijing), Montreux Jazz Festival, and the Paris Jazz Festival.
In addition, I am a Sonor, Zildjian, and Vic Firth Artist.
In our ever changing climate, I am offering remote drum recordings for jazz (swing, modern/odd meter, latin, afro-cuban, pocket etc - all encompassing). There is certainly something to be said for being in the room with other folks, but that is not always possible. Having extensive recording experience, I understand what’s necessary to re-create that feeling - remotely. I am comfortable with the click and understand how to play with it in a way that feels natural - particularly difficult to do in a jazz setting. This is evidenced on my new ep “.beedubyah” (on Spotify, Apple Music etc)
I invite you to visit my website (www.billywilliamsmusic.com) for sound clips, videos, and more information about me.
