Direct from Asbury Park, New Jersey, USA!

Billy Walton, ex lead guitarist with the legendary New Jersey Icons, Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes, one of only three lead guitarists in the last 40 years of the band’s existence. Billy has gone on to tour the USA, Europe and the UK, building a dedicated following of blues rock fans that have embraced the band , hungry for their high energy storming live shows.

Billy is an acknowledged guitar master, earning his stripes with the Jukes, performing devastating shows at the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, the home turf of Bruce Springsteen and former Juke and their main songwriter, Steve Van Zandt or Little Steven as he is widely known. Billy has shared the concert hall stages with these legends as well as Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and Gary ‘US,’ Bonds.

Carrying on the Southside Johnny tradition, he has also recorded his latest albums at the Jon Bon Jovi Studios, another New Jersey native.

The Billy Walton Band is going from strength to strength, alongside his longterm compadre William Paris, a virtuoso bass player, together with the horns and hammond organ, plus recently adding the supremely talented Destinee Monroe on lead vocals and second guitar, the band are the complete package.

Old school blues/rock and soul with a definitive New Jersey flavour.
