about

Billy is a song of impossible love, for anyone feeling like they cannot love who they love in the open.

lyrics

Billy

Billy in the lowground
Billy getting high
Billy be my lover
Before I die
Who would blame a soul
For living while they can?
When the light gets low Billy
Take my hand
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone?
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone?

Billy in the lowground
Billy by the sea
Billy in the backseat
Just park it in the trees
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone?
Isn't there somewhere we can be alone?

Billy I am happy
Billy I am free
Billy love has found us
Billy you and me
Billy in the open
For everyone to see
Billy is this happening?
Billy this is my dream
Billy take me somewhere I have never been
Billy take me somewhere I have never been

Matt Foster Winnipeg, Manitoba

Never quite what you’d expect, Matt Foster is truly unplaceable. Matt moves the room, stirring something in the crowd, without drawing any attention. The music grinds, pops and surprises. At turns soft and lilting, at turns careening out of lane.
