In the early 70’s, Billy headed west to California for several years before heading back east to serve as his brother John Prine’s tour manager, which included hanging at Sam Phillips recording studio in Memphis in 1979 while John was recording his Pink Cadillac album. In the 1980s Billy became one of the original bartenders at the world famous Bluebird Café in Nashville and was a deejay at the famous Nashville nightspot Chevy’s and would also pow the doors off the joints in Chicago with his band Billy and the Bangers. In the 1990s, Billy took his talents in A&R to Oh Boy Records where he curated and produced the series Live from Mountain Stage for Blue Plate Records. As the new millennium arrived, Billy crafted his performing and songwriting in Nashville which led to the release of three albums. Scarlett Egan will be joining Billy Prine as Support.
