Raised in a rural trailer park near the Ohio River, Dillbilly (they/them), grew up in the Bible Belt surrounded by cornfields and grain silos. Songmaker, wordsmith, and multi-instrumentalist, Dillbilly crafts soulful countryfied songs and mournfully resonant ballads that join hands and waltz around a bonfire on a full moon night. Their most recent studio record, “Chaparral,” engages with deeply fraught topics, bringing the deep and troubling to the surface, and in doing so lets in the sunlight. Winding tenderly through these introspective tales is an elegant voice that warbles like a jay, world-weary and vulnerable, yet glowing gently with a palpable inner strength. Featuring performances by a coterie of gifted artists and produced by Julie Wolf, Chaparral is masterfully arranged and recorded; pristine, soft-edged, and utterly enchanting. Over their two decade long career, they have contributed to movies and soundtracks and released 11 records, including one live album, “Chaparral: Cover to Cover”.
