Triangle music fans know him as a “The Rev” – Master of the 88 Key Disaster. An ArtsCenter favorite for many years, The Rev is back with us Saturday November 23rd.

Years ago, Rev. Billy aspired to be a cult figure in the entertainment world. He always dug cats like Bro. Dave Gardner and Lord Buckley. He wanted to combine old school Boogie Woogie piano with highbrow/lowbrow hijinks and bring good music and good times to the club scene

Since his first solo club gig in August of 1979, The Rev has traveled the world Rockin’ the Ivories and leaving them rolling in the aisles.

He recently recorded his tenth national release featuring the legendary Nighthawks, and began touring again. Over the years Rev Billy has opened for diverse acts including Bob Dylan, ZZ Top, The Beach Boys, Boz Scaggs, Bob Weir, Dr. John, Taj Mahal, Emmy Lou Harris, NRBQ, and countless others.

He’s a genius on keys and in live performance. Don’t miss this special show!
