“The Tricks are largely an independent, DIY success story, building a devoted army of fans through near continuous live activity.” Clash Magazine

“Appearing to a raucous crowd, it quickly becomes clear exactly why The Tricks sell out every one of their London gigs… 4/5 Stars” The Fly, live review

Hear to tear you a new one, Kent based Rock five piece Wheres Billy are bringing their own packed lunch's to the Buffet . Since forming at High School the four piece have featured constantly within the London and South East circuit including major venues and near sell out shows at London Astoria2, The Islington Academy and indigO2 at the O2 Arena , Not to mention several uk tours and further jaunts to europe and America. Their debut EP 'The Truth Hurts', produced by Chris Coulter at Stakeout Studios (You me at six, Fightstar, Reuben), gained a respectful amount of industry attention and proved to be a solid foundation to build upon. Wheres Billy have been interviewed on several radio shows, one of which - Total Rock Radio - resulted in their online networking sites reaching record views. Individually and collectively their sound has been influenced by bands as diverse as Reuben right through to Metallica. However , unlike most other bands hoping to bust open the industry , Wheres Billy aren't trying to create a new genre or fit into any other. They pride themselves on being self sufficient in every way so therefore write songs that they would like to hear not what is "in" at the time and in their words - ' ..if anyone else likes it its a bonus' . Recent UK and American tours were successfully completed and now the new material for the follow up to 'The Truth Hurts' is recorded and ready for release in July 2012. With a minimum of three UK tours , another likely stint in America and potential time in Europe as well as their biggest release to date the guys are preparing the energy drinks, beer and the video camera! So stand up , take notice and catch them at one their engaging live shows 2012 is going to be a busy year...
