Loaded Billy is an Adelaide-based classic hard rock – stoner rock band. Their sound owes much to the NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) movement and is reminiscent of classic "British Steel" era Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, early Def Leppard, and bands like Budgie. The music is a mix of great melodies, awesome vocals, big riff-driving guitars, and a pounding kick-arse rhythm section with songs that explore a variety of topics about people and the world. Audiences know it’s Loaded Billy as soon as they hear that first riff, high-powered rock that’s alive and well in the 21st century. Described by audiences and fellow musicians as ‘insanely talented’ – ‘stadium rock’ – ‘unique’ – ‘an emotional experience’ Their songs are entrenched in a rich musical background: their stage presence imbues an energy that consumes the audience … its toe-tappin', head banging, riff-driven pleasure. |
