FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 25, 2005 The Audience is the Main Instrument at Billy Jonas Earth DayIn singalongs, bangalongs, whisperalongs and improvised songs, Billy leads his audience through interactive explosions of energy, punctuated by moments of lyrical calm. A Billy Jonas concert is a turn-of-the 21 st century neotribal hootenanny in the grand folk tradition, where EVERYBODY is in the band. His shows feature crowd-pleasing, foot-stomping songs from CDs Billy Jonas Live and What Kind of Cat Are You?!, which won a Parents’ Choice Gold Award and an AFIM Indie award. Billy’s new releases include the CD, Get Real, for adult/general audiences, as well as, a new music DVD for families appropriately titled Everybody’s in the Band which features guest artist Alison Krauss. Billy is also making headlines this fall with his song “Old St. Helen,” about the resurgently eruptive volcano. For a free download of this song, visit www.billyjonas.com. Billy has won acclaim from the Washington Post, Boston Globe, Family Fun, Parenting magazine and a host of music critics. He is often on the road, performing and singing with crowds at festivals, theaters, clubs and schools around North America. Alison Krauss says, “Billy Jonas’ talent and wit make him and his music irresistible. Whenever I see him perform, my face hurts from smiling.” And Peter Yarrow testifies, “Billy Jonas is one of the most original, moving and simultaneously hilarious performers I've ever seen.” Complete information about Billy Jonas is at www.billyjonas.com.
