Billy Kay
Overview
For 10 years, Billy has been one of Laughlin’s go-to entertainers, bringing intimate performances featuring the best of classic rock and country.
Crowd participation is his specialty. He’ll have people dancing in the aisles, singing along, laughing, and completely engaged. Then, when the moment calls for it, he can bring the entire room to a standstill with a powerful ballad.
His goal is simple: make every person in the room feel like they’re part of the show.
Billy creates the kind of entertainment that gets people talking afterward — and looking forward to seeing him again.
Professional. Interactive. Experienced. Memorable.
That’s what Billy brings to your event.

What to expect
Billy has been making music since he was five years old—and after all these years, he still knows how to have a little fun with it.
He's fully self contained. He brings his own stage, sound and lighting equipment.
But what really sets Billy apart is what happens between the songs.
He’s a natural comedian with a quick wit, a playful personality, and absolutely no fear of getting the audience involved.
Those unexpected moments are often the ones people remember.
Then there’s the voice.
When Billy settles into a love song, jaws tend to drop. And when he switches on his signature “raspy voice,” he can deliver convincing takes on artists like Rod Stewart, Bob Seger, and other classic rock favorites.
Music, comedy, audience participation, surprises, and a few moments you simply have to see for yourself—that’s Billy.
About
Give Your Guests More Than Music.
Billy has been entertaining audiences since the age of five—and he’s learned one very important thing along the way:
People don’t just remember the songs. They remember how you made them feel.
That’s what makes Billy different.
He’s a seasoned entertainer with the musical chops to deliver classic rock, country, unforgettable ballads, and those surprise songs nobody expects. But his secret weapon is the connection he creates with the room.
Billy is a natural comedian, and his quick-witted banter keeps the energy moving between songs. He doesn’t simply stand on a stage and perform at your guests—he brings them into the show.
He’ll have people laughing, singing along, dancing in the aisles, and wondering what he’s going to do next. And yes… he’s even been known to follow someone to the bathroom because, apparently, nobody gets to escape before the song is over. :)
The Unexpected Moments Are the Best Ones.
Billy loves pulling out songs that everyone recognizes but rarely hears performed live. One minute you’re enjoying a familiar classic, and the next you’re hearing something completely unexpected—like “If I Only Had a Brain” from The Wizard of Oz.
Those are the moments guests talk about afterward.
And then comes the voice.
Billy can turn down the comedy and deliver a heartfelt love song that can genuinely stop a room in its tracks. Flip the switch to his signature raspy voice, and suddenly you’re hearing the grit and character of artists like Rod Stewart and Bob Seger.
A Proven Performer With a Track Record.
Billy has been the #1 ReverbNation artist in Laughlin, left South Carolina in the #1 spot, and was once the most-downloaded person in his hometown of Las Vegas.
For an event planner, that translates into something simple:
You’re not just hiring someone to play music. You’re hiring someone who knows how to work a room.
Whether you need background entertainment that draws people in, a performer who can get a crowd moving, or a personality who becomes part of the event itself, Billy brings the experience, versatility, humor, and audience connection to make your event something people actually remember.
Because the best entertainment isn't what fills the time between dinner and dessert.
It's what people are still talking about when they go home.
Additional booking notes
I play one hour sets, which are actually 45-minutes as I need to have a 15 minute break in-between sets

Influences and inspiration
My influences are many. My dad taught me country, mom taught me standards, grew up on rock, have a degree in Jazz, attended classical college. As long as it's good, it influenced me.
Setup requirements
House PA would be nice, but I'm self-contained
