About Me

Billy DenMead is from the small town of Brocton near Buffalo, New York. Soon after high school, he found the music scene in Cleveland, Ohio was the place to be. He helped form Alexander with Steve Keopka, Jeff Hair, Frank Pannell, and Eric Alexander. They quickly became very popular and successful on the Cleveland music circuit. Billy left Alexander to form Dorian Gray with Jani Lane (Warrant) on drums, Dave Chamberlain (DBW Productions) on lead guitar and Kevin Ryan (Pat Travers, Rick Derringer) on bass. Dorian Gray made Orlando, FL their home. They found immediate success playing clubs and concerts all over the southern United States. Jani Lane moved to L.A. to front his own band Warrant. He was replaced on drums by Morgan Evans. Dorian Gray rocked Central Florida for years until Billy decided to leave the music business to raise a family.
The kids are older and it's time to rock and roll again! Billy spent the last 8 months writing and recording in his old pal Dave Chamberlain's DBW Productions studio in suburban Los Angeles, California. The two together along with Steven Sweet (Warrant) on drums have just finished a phenomenal sounding debut CD called Me. Billy's melodic vocals and Dave's sensational guitar playing and producing have turned out a top notch project.
His album "Me" is available at CDFreedom.com, CDBaby.com and now on ITunes. Billy was recently chosen as the December's Independent Artist of the Month at www.powerhouserock.net
