Over the past six months Billbones has gradually evolved into one of the most consistently fun & hard rockin' acts in NYC. The band mixes together their own blend of New York via London underground rock with hard chargin' cover tunes & a take no prisoners stage show. Most shows you go see in the city people in the crowd just kinda scratch their chins and slowly nod along. But at a Billbones show you might see a 40 year old wino holding a flask while doing the twist in the front row or a couple of barely legals hooting along as they dance on a couch - it’s come as you are anything goes. There’s no posing here, just a band playing "get up, have a beer, and shake your ass!" music and the crowds seem to get larger & more energetic with every show. The band definitely vibes off their energy on stage steadily gaining momentum song by song. Tonight the usually relatively stoic & reserved bass player Mike Bones stole the show emerging from the wings to mix it up with the crowd a bit and then without warning trashing the drum kit during the finale in true Rockstar style. If you like to party & listen to Rock N' Roll this may be the band for you.
