Billy Devereaux the Singing Mechanic

Alaska born, Florida raised by a Guitar/Mandolin picker from the Black Zion Community just outside Pontotoc, Mississippi.Billy has been on stage since winning his first talent show contest at age 5. After sharing the stage for 10 years with his family band including award winning #1 Artist Judy Rodman, Billy began writing his own music and playing Night Clubs in the Memphis area with local bands eventually following his sister's footsteps to the Nashville area. After many years trying to make it big in the music industry Billy married the Pastor's daughter at the church he attended and turned away from the unpredictable life of a musician. In that time he concentrated mainly on developing his skills as a Master Auto Mechanic into a business of his own. All that time he never stopped writing and playing. It was not until Billy's wife died from Ovarian Cancer, and afterwards co-writing a song called "A Crack In My Armor" with sister Judy Rodman that Billy returned to the music scene. Grammy Award winner Randy Khors used it as the title cut on his first album release. That prompted Billy to once again dive in to the dirty waters of the Music Industry. Check out Billy's rendition of the song made famous by Kurt Cobain with Nirvonna, Willy Guthrie, LeadBelly, Bill Monroe, and Dolly Parton called "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" . This album also includes new sounds from co-writings with Super Star Judy Rodman, Billy Robbins Sr., and Award Winning Vocalist Tammy Dee.Check out Tammy, my Kuntry Girl/Wife/Superstar singing 'The One To Blame" with me.
