EMMY AWARD FINGERSTYLE ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSICIAN

For decades, Billy McLaughlin astounded audiences around the world with his
complex and rhythmic music.

At the height of his international recording and touring career, Billy was
diagnosed with Focal Dystonia, a mysterious and yet-to-be-cured neuromuscular
disorder that rendered him unable to play his own music.


DESPITE EVERY EFFORT TO COMBAT HIS CONDITION, SOON BILLY’S CAREER WAS OVER.

But the long deafening silence was broken when Billy began a historic comeback.
He was doing the unthinkable – relearning his songs one note at a time with his
opposite hand…

BILLY MCLAUGHLIN IS ASTOUNDING AUDIENCES ONCE AGAIN WITH BOTH HIS STORY AND HIS
MUSIC.




NEW BILLY MCLAUGHLIN SINGLES NOW ON SPOTIFY, AMAZON & APPLE MUSIC



When the Rain Comes Down tells a true-life love story with all the joy,
second-guessing and a sad ending delivered by cell phone. Love you always
“Pink”!

When the Rain Comes Down is available to add to your collection on any of the
places you enjoy listening to music here.



Dirt Floor is my cover of the title track from Chris Whitley’s fourth album
(1998). On his recording he used just one ribbon microphone and an analog two
track in his father’s barn. That whole album is both magical and mystical to me
– deftly played National guitar and his silky and powerful voice. The song
captures my own feelings about death and finding comfort in the simplicity and
naturalness of something I don’t look forward to very much. Loving his artistry
so much, I was shocked and saddened when he passed in November of 2005 not long
after I got hip to him. His lyrics take on even more meaning to me ever since.

Dirt Floor is available to add to your collection on any of the places you enjoy
listening to music here.



This song speaks among many things to my love-affair with music and the curative
powers it still holds for me. The second verse might be about one of the many
love-at-first-sight experiences I’ve both enjoyed and struggled with my whole
life – but it’s also about music and my tendency to leave words out entirely. I
wrote the words during my battle with dystonia that had me wondering if I’d ever
get to play again – if someday my music would all come back. The chorus is
pretty much all you need to know about who I am and what I believe as captured
in a time of epic uncertainty I know we can all relate to. Acoustic
“tapping-style” guitar rarely forms the core of an expanded ensemble/vocal piece
but the arrangement emerged as a complete accompaniment as I began to play
left-handed again.

Dream Without Fear is available to add to your collection on any of the places
you enjoy listening to music here.



My new single is “Come Talk To Me”, a cover by Peter Gabriel who is a musical
hero of mine. His body of work is vast, layered, complex, intricately arranged
and bound together by his emotive vocals. Wouldn’t seem likely that I could ever
use one guitar and be able to effectively arrange any of my favorite songs by
him to perform at my live shows – especially with just two fingers working on my
fretboard hand. But that was my challenge as I dreamed of singing “Come Talk To
Me”, the opening track from his album, Us (1992), featuring Sinead O’Connor.
Experimenting with unusual tunings got me to a place that everything essential
was intact and I sang this tune at my solo gigs with just one guitar for years.
It was super fulfilling to create this recording that is essentially built
around that solo guitar version. Newly arranged vocal parts with a unique set of
ancient bagpipes played by Laura MacKenzie gives this version a special feel
that I hope PG might hear some day.

Come Talk To Me available to add to your collection on any of the places you
enjoy listening to music here!



And one more reason to come to the shows, we’re playing brand new songs from a
series of new singles that I’m releasing. If you loved my The Archery of the
Guitar or Exhale Blue albums, you’re going to love these news songs! Follow me
at Spotify and Apple Music for new release dates. The first single is my take on
the classic “Gospel Plow”, coming February 12th, two days ahead of our first
COTLS show. This song tells me all I need to know about survival and its message
helped me through years of tough times. And while you’re waiting to hear my
version, check out Mahalia Jackson’s version – and Chance McCoy’s too. Bob
Dylan’s version is quite something as well. Arranging this traditional piece was
a blast with a special thank you to Heather Moen from SimpleGifts who got the
vocal “call-and-response” vibe jumping!

Gospel Plow available to add to your collection on any of the places you enjoy
listening to music here!

Christmastide 2024 with SimpleGifts featuring Billy McLaughlin

Over 20 years of holiday arranging, recording, and touring finds SimpleGifts in
peak creative holiday mode this season. “We are more passionate than ever about
bringing folks together around the traditional carols and hymns that we have
lovingly reimagined like no other show,” says band-leader Billy McLaughlin.

Celtic whistles, violin, piano, acoustic guitar and percussion are topped off
with angelic three-part harmonies giving this legendary ensemble its signature
“Old-World Modern” sound. Audiences of all ages laugh, cry, celebrate and sing
along to perhaps the most original versions of Christmas classics you will ever
find – as heard on the group’s six outstanding holiday CD’s. Warm up your ears
for the show on Spotify or wherever you stream your music.

Exquisite set-design, lighting and exceptional audio system exceed expectations
nightly. Long-time fans look forward to welcoming you back or meeting you for
the first time and just might have a Christmas cookie for you!
