Billy Blanchard is an original songwriter with a unique sound of fingerstyle/folk guitar. His songs communicate reflections and inspirations drawn from life's day-to-day moments and the larger themes of Being.
He's had the joy of creating and performing as a member of the swamp-folk trio WETLANDS and the old-me DIY trio Peg & Awl. The music is a mix of guitar, clawhammer banjo, voices and songs that are as much a part of the long tradition of folk music as they are music of today.
Billy lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan and is currently at work producing the HomeField Recordings podcast; a gentle meandering patchwork of songs and sounds recorded in nature and his surroundings.
