Billy
Classical Guitarist
Billy is an award-winning Anglo-Brazilian instrumental guitarist.
Classically trained at the prestigious Royal College of Music, Billy blends Latin roots with Flamenco, Classical, Rock, and Pop, creating a unique sound.
His performances of iconic songs like Bohemian Rhapsody have earned praise from Queen and Brian May’s official channels.
Since the age of six, Billy has developed a musical style that resonates with fans across genres. In 2022, he was invited by Adam Wakeman (Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osbourne) to open all UK dates for the Jazz Sabbath tour, including a sold-out performance in Birmingham, where he shared the stage with Prog-Rock legend Rick Wakeman. Later that year, he also opened for Magnum at their 50th anniversary concert in Wolverhampton.
A regular at major UK and European festivals such as Guitar Summit, Musikmesse (Germany), Latitude, Edinburgh Fringe, Towersey Festival, and The Henley Festival, Billy has performed alongside stars like Midge Ure, The Pet Shop Boys, and Chaka Khan.
Billy has independently released two full-length studio albums, Riversong (2018) and Back Street Kid (2021), as well as a Queen-inspired EP, On With the Show (2020). His live shows offer a mesmerizing journey through Classical, Flamenco, Pop, Disco, and Classic Rock – all delivered on one guitar.
Officially endorsed by major brands such as Ortega Guitars, who released a signature model in his name in 2022, Billy is also available for TV and session work, private bookings, weddings, corporate events, and festivals.
