Rock Legend Billy Crain Releases New Album Family Matters

Family Matters by Billy Crain

Billy Crain has played in front of a crowd of 1,100,000 people and he has played for an empty club on Christmas Eve called Losers. He’s received royalty checks for 6-figures and others for less than a quarter.

I’ve been an Outlaw, a Bellamy Brother, a Music Row songwriter and producer and session guitar player, won songwriter awards, received multi-platinum sales awards and ended up shoveling horse manure to pay my child support.”

Learning guitar from his brother, Tommy Crain, Billy was fortunate enough to see Hendrix, Allman, Clapton, Albert King, and Page perform as a teenager. Later on he shared stages with The Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Skynyrd, ZZ Top, and several more rock heroes from the classic era.

Touring in everything from econolines to puddle jumper planes, Billy has toured the world many times in the name of Great Music.

As one of the legends and great figures of Southern Rock, Billy Crain has arrived with a new album Family Matters… and it ROCKS!!!

Take into consideration everything I just said then just click play. I don’t need to go on about the production quality, the great songwriting, or how a rock legend just released a great album.

The music speaks for itself. This record has a classic feel but with a modern appeal. Crank it up to 11 and jam.

Connect with Billy on FB then go grab your copy of Family Matters. You won’t regret it!
