Billy’s live show can leave you feeling amused and heartbroken within the same pint of beer.
Coastal Victorian based Alt-folk singer-songwriter Billy Barker puts a warm and abrasive lustre on some seriously inspiring folk tunes that both twist and inspire.
With a staunch work-ethic on guitar and a crowd grabbing presence, Billy takes audiences down that wondrous and gritty road of everyday life.
Over the last five years Billy has repeatedly filled popular Melbourne venues, country pubs and festival stages with a rich catalogue of tracks.
The pandemic years saw a return home to Victoria’s rugged coastline where he’d first picked up a guitar, inspired by the songs of Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen.
There, he’s built a studio, released an album of lost tracks and started recoridng a new album set for release in 2024.
With a sound that lands somewhere between Gareth Liddiard and Jeff Buckley, Billy looks to continue this impressive push forward in scenes both local and abroad.
“A stunning songwriter with a pure and timeless voice.” Blake Scott of Peep Tempel.
