Song: “Keep My Lights On”

What About it: ‘”Keep My Lights On” is about struggling with depression while trying to explain to someone you love what it’s like to carry such heavy burden. The song focuses on a conversation between two partners, one of whom is describing the low points of his illness while reassuring her that although there are dark times, he will always do his best to persevere and return to his normal self. It’s a story about self-honesty and the determination to make things work despite the flaws we carry.”
Billy hails from Boston and is regularly performing at venues in the New England area. The new album, “Wildwood” , centers on time, mortality, and personal growth, blending styles of folk, rock, and blues. He will be playing in August and September in Maine and the Boston areas, one of which will be the “Wildwood” CD release show at The Burren in Somerville on August 2nd.’
