What can I say! Billy has such a powerful emotion and persona when she performs! From the first day I saw/heard her perform I was blown away! Billy performs with PURE passion! You can really feel it in her voice as she sings. I was so taken back by her performance that I immediately asked her to perform at one of my shows. And guess what!? EVERYBODY loved her!!! So if you need that something extra for your live event then please contact this amazing artist! She's just amazing! :) - Byron Gore, Singer-Songwriter, Session Musician at Byron Gore
Performing artist Billy Anne Crews has the natural ability to write compelling stories in the American pastoral writing tradition. Crews' music has a perfect mixture of country and rock musical sounds. Her raw vocals are filled with emotion as the artist is completely connected to the stories she sings. - ArtBracket.com
Billy Anne Crews is truly a hidden gem in San Diego music, mostly playing the beach coffeehouses and clubs. Her vocals seem reminiscent of the rich notes of Fiona Apple with the country stylings of Lucinda Williams. Her formal music education and love for the genre of art shines through as she crones her heart out.

Pull on your boot cuts and pull down that Deere cap, ya'll, Whistle Stop's propping country rock in a triple bill. Local rock-n-soul sots Bartender's Bible lay out the old-school barroom brand; Exfriends come from '90s Americana; and New Yorker by way of Chatanooga Billie Anne Crews turns up her strat for fat "country grunge." Lady sounds a bit like Janis....

Bio
Billy Anne Crews has played music since she remembers being alive. Billy was born in Waukegan, IL and raised in Chattanooga, TN. While most kids were out doing what they do, Billy was in her room listening to records and studying the lyrics. Decades of piano lessons and a music degree later, Billy still just wanted to plug in a guitar and write songs.
Even though she played several instruments over the years, Billy really loved singing and writing lyrics the most. 80s and 90s indie rock had a big influence on Billy's songwriting, but so did many singer/songwriters that she loved so well.
Known as the Southern Grunge Chick, Billy plays a unique style of music in the Americana genre. She resides in East Tennessee and continues to play clubs in the US and England.
