At the end of 2017 “Billy” the band was formed. Mixing a large verity of music styles and genres “Billy” was a very interesting collaboration. Yet front man Adrian Harper wanted to do something unique and push the idea of what a band could be. “There are so many bands out there, how could “Billy” stand out from the rest and offer more to its growing fan base?”
Since Adrian had been part of many musical project before that all fallowed the same formula he wished to take a new approach. Having a background in drawing, film, and performance he wanted to use his knowledge and create and robust brand that had content that spanned over different mediums.
The goal then became to make a conceptual band that had a central theme. A story started to emerged that would eventually become a comic book, a themed album with hand drawings and live shows.
