About Me

Billy Vincent...

Thick as thieves frontmen Billy Barratt and David Vincent bring you Billy Vincent, a South London based five-piece band spearheading a new sound for 2009, 'Dirty Folk'.
Billy Vincent sound indisputably unique but dig deep and you can hear influences from the likes of Nick Cave and Conor Oberst. Billy Vincent’s catchy-as-hell songs are delivered with passion, wit and panache, making them one of the most compelling emerging artists around.
With their first single ‘Sugar & Soap’ now available (Click here ), Billy Vincent are heading for a busy summer, with additional singles supporting festival appearances in the run up to the release of their debut album towards the end of the year.
In the press:
“An extremely impressive debut single…a brilliantly unique piece of folky pop…. pure indie pop joy…they will find themselves on everyone’s Ipods in 2010.” Altsounds
“Mixing the dramatic Indie-Pop of The Waterboys via The Cure’s genius for songwriting craft, very impressive!” Subba Cultcha
“Va-va-voom…There’s potential for greatness here.” Die Shellsuit Die
“Insanely catchy chorus.” Allgigs.co.uk
“Plenty to offer from its indie/folk coffers.” The Music Fix
