Billy Manzik's musical journey began where Highway 61 ends, in Thunder Bay Ontario. The soundtrack for his upbringing was provided by his guitar slinging, country singing mother, and influenced by roots rock, old rhythm and blues, not to mention Billy's penchant for wandering the continent. The result is a driving blues rock sound, complete with catchy riffs, lyrical hooks and a 'feel-good' toe tapping kind of style.
