.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .... .... Billy Vera & the Beaters are the quintessential L.A. band. A fav of local Hollywood Stars, producers, and other hipsters, celebrities frequently attend the bands' shows throughout the So-Cal area. The Baddest Band On Any Stand sounds great live with their mix of BV's cool-smooth vocals and the rockin' horn section. BV, as he's known to his friends, can still hit the high notes and also amuse the crowd with his witty patter. Any show of Billy Vera & the Beaters is sure to please. .. Born May 28, 1944 in Riverside, California, Billy was named after his father, Bill McCord, who worked as a staff announcer for NBC in New York, where Billy grew up. His mom, Ann Ryan, was one of the Ray Charles Singers on record and TV with Perry Como. Still in his teens, Billy made his first record. One side, My Heart Cries, was popular in the Northeast, while the other side, the self-penned All My Love, saw regional action in Texas and Louisiana. The first song he ever presented to a publisher, Mean Old World, became a chart hit for Ricky Nelson and, one year later, his Make Me Belong To You, was a summer hit for Atlantic Records star Barbara Lewis. This entre to Atlantic caused label chief Jerry Wexler to sign Billy. The resulting single, a duet with Dionne Warwick's cousin, Judy Clay, was the hit, Storybook Children. The two followed up with Country Girl-City Man and appeared at Harlem's Apollo Theater to standing ovations. Billy's first solo hit was a cover of Bobby Goldsboro's With Pen In Hand, arranged by the late Arif Mardin and supervised by Wexler. But the late 60's were changing times and Billy couldn't find a way to fit in musically. The 70's were rough, until Dolly Parton cut Billy's song, I Really Got The Feeling, taking it to Number 1 on the country charts. This propelled a move to Los Angeles, where, in 1979, he formed Billy & the Beaters, which soon became the most talked-about band in town. In 1981, the band recorded for Alfa Records, the chart hit, I Can Take Care Of Myself, written by Billy. The follow-up, At This Moment, scraped the lower end of the charts, as Alfa's Japanese owners pulled the plug on the label. Five years later, a phone call from the producer of the sitcom Family Ties changed everything. They wanted to use At This Moment in an episode. The public responded and the song, now reissued on Rhino, vaulted to Number 1 nationally. ..In the interim, Billy had built a side career in acting, appearing in the cult film, Buckaroo Banzai, Oliver Stone's The Doors, Blake Edward's Blind Date, as well as various TV shows like Alice, Wise Guy, Baywatch and a recurring role as Duke on Beverly Hills, 90210. Billy's radio show, Billy Vera's Rock-n-Roll Party, led to yet another side career as a voiceover artist. He's been heard, plugging products like Burger King, Honda, Toyota, Mercury, Mervins and dozens of others. Billy produced the last four albums of his friend, Lou Rawls, taking the great singer back to Number 1 on the jazz charts, reviving his recording career. Their last collaboration was Rawls Sings Sinatra, one year prior to Lou's passing. Artists who have recorded Billy Vera songs include Bonnie Raitt, Robert Plant, Fats Domino, the Shirelles, Tom Jones, Freda Payne and Little Milton. Television has been good to Billy. He's sung the theme songs to the hit series King Of Queens and Empty Nest and his tunes have been used in many shows. A recent appearance on the NBC show Hit Me Baby One More Time resulted in renewed interest in Billy Vera and sell-out crowds at his appearances.
