Villebillies [VILL-BILL-EEZ] is an American band from Louisville, Kentucky. The Villebillies' signature sound encompasses hip hop, rock, country, blues, soul and bluegrass. The group began in the early 2000s when a crew of loosely related musicians and MC's began to collaborate, and named themselves the Villebillies, an ironic nod to their hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. By playing shows and handing out demos, the Villebillies quickly became a local success. In 2006, the band was signed to Universal/Motown and released their self-titled debut. Two years later, the band left the label but continued to write and perform independently, releasing several albums under their own imprint. (en) |
