ABOUT BILLY O'ROURKE

Lyrics that mean something, melodies that are actually melodic music that possesses those traits always finds a loyal audience sooner or later. For Texas singer/songwriter Billy O’Rourke, that audience is made up of the music lovers who drop into the Cowboy Bar in Helotes, Texas, on Tuesday night, to hear what’s on his mind. So as a tribute to them, and as a way for others to hear what’s been going on in Helotes nearly every week for over 6 years, Billy’s released his second CD, titled "Tuesday." There at the Cowboy Bar, it’s just Billy and his guitar up on the stage. He’s wearing jeans and a T-shirt, singing in an engaging, easygoing baritone that recalls his West Texas roots. And the mostly acoustic Tuesday is a lot like those performances,which Billy’s been doing nearly every week for 6 years.
