In 2016 he landed a #1 Gospel Bluegrass song "He's A Coming" recorded by Darin and Brooke Aldridge.
Bill’s song “Cornhole The Song” was the featured piece of music in the recently released independent movie “Cornhole The Movie”…that features the popular Midwest bean bag game.

Through the years, Bill has performed with, Jeff Dunham, Heywood Banks, Larry the Cable Guy, Crystal Gayle, Little Big Town, Gary Morris and many others. And in 2019 Bill signed an exclusive publishing deal with Billy Blue Publishing in Nashville.

THE RADIO GUY
Bill is an accomplished radio broadcaster hosting morning shows in Cincinnati, Milwaukee, Indianapolis and Nashville. He has been nominated three times for the CMA (Country Music Association) “Air Personality of the Year” and was honored to the CMA Award for Best Large Market Personality in 1991. Bill is also a winner of the Gavin “Large Market Broadcast Personality of The Year” as well as an AIR Award for “Best New Radio Show” in Nashville.
In 2012 Bill was awarded the highest honor for a Country Radio personality when he was inducted into the Country Radio Broadcasters Hall of Fame.

Currently Bill works on air for “The Legend” 650AM WSM in Nashville.
As a syndicated writer for both United Stations and Premiere in New York, Bill provides comedy bits for production and distribution to morning radio shows across the country. He has also been the most frequent guest host for the Bob Kingsley Top 40 Countdown Show. Just this year, the CMA Broadcast Hall of Fame has honored Bill with a nomination.

And he’s hosted a number of “live” syndicated performance shows hosting world premiers for Patty Loveless and Jo Dee Messina to name a couple. He has also guest hosted for Bob Kingsley on his national countdown show numerous times.

THE ENTERTAINER

As far as a performer…whether he's picking on pseudo celebrities in his song "CELEBUTARD" or wondering how much he could get away with in "IF I HAD BOOBS" he always leaves the crowd laughing. Bill's song "I'M GOIN’ UGLY EARLY TONIGHT" which has been recorded by Cledus T. Judd, is the perfect howling climax for his stand-up/singing routine.

“I’m Going Ugly Early” written with Brent Burns finished number two a few years ago for “Novelty Song Of The Year” at the “Just Plain Folks Music Award Show” in Nashville over hundreds of entries worldwide.
