Backstory:

Dutiful Bill was born from the ashes of an abandoned factory in the heart of Cleveland, Ohio. The band members, comprising of friends since high school- Billy Johnson, Jake Davis, Susie Williams, and Maxine Johnson, use their music as an escape from the mundane routine of their daily lives. Their name “Dutiful Bill” originated out of a combination of their lead vocalist, Billy Johnson’s childhood nickname and their collective desire to remain loyal to their roots and hometown. When they aren’t at their day jobs, they are in their makeshift studio, churning out one song after another, with the hope of making it big one day.

In their early days, they performed in local bars and small-time gigs. They captured the hearts of the locals with their raw energy and honest lyrics. Over time, their popularity began to grow, and they started receiving invites to perform at bigger venues, even opening for renowned acts. Their dream of making it big in the music industry seems to be slowly turning into a reality.

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Dm G C
Whiskey lullaby, under the moon’s cry,
Am Em F
Look how far we’ve come, ain’t it a surprise?
Dm G C
Trapped in the rhythm, lost in the night,
Am Em F
The music’s on, and baby we’re alright.

(Chorus)
Dm G C
Sing to me a whiskey lullaby,
Am Em F
Under starlight with teardrops in our eyes.
Dm G C
Through the pain, through the highs,
Am Em F
We’re dancing with a whiskey lullaby.

(Verse 2)
Dm G C
Through the smoke, through the crowd,
Am Em F
We sway, lost and found.
Dm G C
In the heat, in the chill,
Am Em F
With our hearts, we’ll fill.

(Chorus)
Dm G C
Sing to me a whiskey lullaby,
Am Em F
Under starlight with teardrops in our eyes.
Dm G C
Through the pain, through the highs,
Am Em F
We’re dancing with a whiskey lullaby.
