Whether
he is slapping his bass, playing the fiddle with vigor, or belting out a
song, John Marshall [aka Billy Bass] is the heartbeat of Billy Hill and
the Hillbillies. Raised in Southern California in classical music
traditions, John is the founder and leader of the Hillbillies and real
life brother of Evan Marshall [aka Billy Mandolin].
He
has admitted to playing at "almost every theme park in Southern
California" and says he has a scratch on his bass from every theme
park to prove it. He has also played with the Long Beach Philharmonic
Orchestra, the Bridges of Orange County String Ensemble, and guests spots
with the Wichita Symphony Orchestra, the Buffalo Philharmonic, The Grand
Rapids Symphony, the Houston Symphony and the Tulsa Philharmonic
Orchestra. |
