Bill Small Music

Bill Small is no stranger to diversifying his skills; he’s made his living as a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, Mystiquero, entrepreneur, artist, producer, vocal coach, business and personal coach...

Bill grew up in a musical household where everyone could sing, just a stone's throw from the Big Apple. From Sinatra and swing to show-tunes. Todd Rundgren to Pink Floyd. Growing up in the 70's with FM radio and 2 older sisters to steal records from, he caught the music bug bad.

Part of his teen years were spent learning everything he could about theater while working as a student performer and intern at The Whole Theater Company in Montclair, NJ.

When he wasn't doing that he was writing songs and.....you guessed it, playing in bands!

  • Bill moved around some during high school with his family, and then on his own after graduation, and always found a band to play music with. Playing in bands has been a constant for most of his life.

    After 2 years studying voice at at Berklee College of Music in Boston, and another couple of years living in Jersey and working in New York City, he decided to make a change.

    His family had lived in a magical place called Austin, TX before he was born, and when he was very young, they used to take family vacations to Texas. He had been hearing about all the great music there and of course, being in his "Guitar Slinger" phase, the lure of Stevie Ray was too hard to resist.

    Bill moved to Austin along with two great friends and fine musicians from Jersey, and they found themselves performing all over Austin in the early nineties as Heavy Weather. goes here

    More bands came and went in the nineties (Radio Thieves, Stringbones), and a solo record entitled Singin. More moving around. A marriage. A divorce. Boston. Nashville.

    Back to Texas and 14 years with The Mystiqueros. A bit of an Austin, TX super group led by songwriter Walt Wilkins. The MQ's released 4 records during that time, and performed on countless more for other artists.

    After the Covid-19 shut down in 2020, Bill noticed that staying home more was really nice!

    Not traveling as much has led to more songs and new recordings, as well as a podcast.

    Still performing locally and doing some touring with Walt Wilkins, be on the lookout for more records, more projects, and who knows what else...
