A professional vocalist since her teens, Billie Williams has a rich repertoire that includes country, blues, rock, R&B, jazz and popular songs from the Great American Songbook.

Ms. Williams is a native of the Boston area where, at age 16, she co-founded the country swing band Columbus East.  She went on to sing with the rock band Mezz and then with 8-piece R&B band City Edition.  During her years with City Edition she shared the stage with R&B legends Wilson Pickett and Sam & Dave.  The Boston Globe called Billie’s performance with City Edition “…riveting…she sang of joy and heartache with equal conviction.”

When Billie arrived in New York City she landed a gig as lead vocalist with blues band The Lenny Nelson Project.  After time off to raise her daughter, Billie has returned to performing – most recently with the show “Sentimental Journeys” appearing with actress/singer Jean Tafler and vocalist Tracy Toler. 

Billie is now in rehearsal for her upcoming show “That’s My Desire – a celebration of blues and torch songs.”
