Billy Falcon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Billy Falcon, born William Falcone, is a Nashville-based singer/songwriter. Falcon grew up in Rosedale, New York, releasing a handful of rock albums throughout the late 1970's and the 1980's; as well as an appearance on The Way International's High Country Caravan. The early 1990's saw Falcon signing a deal with Mercury Records after fan Jon Bon Jovi contacted Falcon about working together. Pretty Blue World, released in 1991, produced Falcon's highest charting hit, "Power Windows."
Falcon resides in Nashville and is best known as a songwriter, having written or co-written songs performed by Trace Adkins, Sherrie Austin, Cher, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, and Stevie Nicks, as well as several songs from the past few Bon Jovi albums.
Stumbling across an internet fan page reconnected Falcon with listeners hungry for more of his music. As a result, Songs About Girls was released in 2003. Falcon continues to write and record in Nashville. His next album, Made Man was released in late summer 2006.
Billy's daughter, Rose Falcon, is also a musician, who released her debut album on Columbia in 2003.
