- A BRIEF HISTORY -

I began performing in 1964 in a gospel group with my family, "The Williams Family." After five years we started playing all types of music and toured until the late 70's. It is rumored the "The Partridge Falily" was based on us. I have played pop, rock, country, oldies and even spent several years portraying George Harrison in Beatlemania. I have performed either onstage or as an opening act for Billy Joel, Wilson Pickett, Sha Na Na, Barbara Mandrel, Dr. Hook, Danny Bonaduce, Joe Piscopo, J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, Jeff LaBarr (Cinderella), Myron Floren, George Morgan...

I was asked to produce a series of videos for the Pioneers, a group of rock and rollers playing a pop/rock/country mix which was exciting because playing bass on several songs was none other than John Entwistle from the Who. Unfortunatley Mr. Entwistle passed away before his part of filming and the project was shelved.

My current projects include the release of "Rockin' Through Time" by the Rockabilly Rebels, "Originals", a CD of my compositions on which I perform all vocals and instruments, and I am also recording a gospel C
