Billy Boy On Poison is a rock n roll band from Los Angeles, California. The band formed in 2005 with original members Davis LeDuke, Ryan Wallengren and Jess Calcaterra. In 2007 the addition of guitarist Gregory West was made. After writing and recording with producer Chris Sorensen, the label shopping began, and they were subsequently signed by Kiefer Sutherland and Jude Cole of Ironworks Music. In 2008, bass player Julian Borego was replaced, and after a rotating cast of bass players, the band settled with Jacob Pillot in April 2009.
On July 7, 2009 their debut album, Drama Junkie Queen, was released to great critical acclaim. In June 2009 they made their first television appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Their single "On My Way" has been featured in promos for television shows including Gossip Girl and Entourage, along with spots in several commercials. In addition, the group has opened for the likes of Jet, Stone Temple Pilots, and Weezer.
Their name originates from a quote from A Clockwork Orange Novel and Film.
Currently, the band is in the process of writing and recording songs for an upcoming album.
