Biography
BILLY WISE & Mountain Time

Billy Wise from Nashville, Tennessee has been performing music all his life in clubs and at festivals throughout the Southeast. Known for their excellent live performances, Billy Wise & Mountain Time showcases Billy’s outstanding guitar cross-picking and vocals.

The new CD “Lonesome” includes two songs co-written by Bob Landrigan (Tennessee Bob) and Billy, “Little Church On The Side Of The Road” and an acapella song “Where Eyes Won’t Cry”, and the title cut “Lonesome” by Billy, Joan and Bob. It also features “Out Where The Wildflowers Grow” by Grammy nominated songwriter Rick Lang and “These Ole Mountain Ways” by Jeff Brown of Jeff Brown & Still Lonesome. Rounding out the remaining songs are “Moonshine Man” by CeCe Dubois/Carmen Didier/Judy King, a ballad “When Daddy Played” by Billy and Jackie Paul, “Back Home To Me” by Billy and “Heaven’s Bright Shore” by Billy and Joan. There’s also an instrumental “When The Angels Sing” by Billy where he plays two guitars and bass.

Joining Billy on vocals on the Bill Monroe song “Mothers Only Sleeping” is Rural Rhythm Records recording artist Joe Hott, known for his recent #1 recordings in the Bluegrass Gospel Charts. With the band’s current success of the song “Flyin’ High Like A Butterfly” at radio and Billy and his wife Joan having penned the Ralph Stanley II & the Clinch Mountain Boys recent #1 hit “Beautiful Hills Of Home” (3 times #1 and 42 weeks in the chart) and songs for several other artists, it’s been a good year musically!
