To make it in the cutting edge and fiercely competitive music industry, you have to be versatile, innovative, and adaptable. With her finger on the pulse of “what’s hot” across the Eastern seaboard, U.K. native, Billie Myers has proven that she has what it takes to make it to the top, by consistently creating music that is thought provoking, sexy and above all things honest. Myers excels at weaving poetic narratives around starkly honest portraits of her life experiences “reassuringly long on singer-songwriting talent” (The London Times). Her debut album “Growing, pains” spawned the infectious, hit single, “Kiss The Rain.” Carving out a spectacular niche on airwaves around the globe, “Kiss The Rain” stayed on Billboard’s Top 100 for over six months, reached the top ten internationally and the dance remix became a club-land classic. “Growing, pains” was certified gold in both the US and Canada. The success of “Kiss The Rain” set off a lengthy period of worldwide touring. Driven by a need to entertain, not only perform, Myers astounded crowds with high energy, emotionally driven performances described as “electrifying” by Rolling Stone. Included were stints on Lilith Fair and support slots on tours with Bob Dylan. Join us as Billie shares the ups and downs of stardom and the obstacles she had to overcome.
