Typically performing as a solo act, Billy Simons' shows are captivating, acoustic performances featuring beatboxing, guitar tapping, and lyrics to which audiences can relate. His stylized ability to tell stories through his music usually takes artists a lifetime to channel, and his quirky lyrics are sure to leave you smiling, crying, or both. At a Billy Simons show, you're just as likely to see business men dancing on chairs as you are to see girls singing every word to every song with stars in their eyes.

From the Boston subways to headlining clubs, Brian Webb has come a long way. When Webb started out, he would set up at the Davis Square T stop in Somerville, MA. Brian spread his music all over the commuters and they threw him change as they awaited their trains. After realizing that he could make just as much money busking in the subways as he did at his waiter gig, so he quit and became a full time performer. Since then, Webb has released both a studio and live album, selling out rooms in the North East, and gaining notoriety as folk force with which to be reckoned.
