Description
"... a wildly gifted musician, Bill Burke plays the Warr guitar, an 8-string instrument that allows him to play multiple parts at the same time. That requires discipline, not to mention dexterity, but he pulls it off gracefully...
- Dave Richards, Erie Times-News
Bill is a unique and accessible soloist. His music grooves the body and delights the mind. Each of his compositions lives and breathes in it's own way. Each has its own color and shape. Each produces a distinct pleasurable effect upon the listener.
His vehicle of expression is the 8-string touch guitar - an instrument that allows the soloist to play multiple part compositions. Essentially, Bill's left hand plays bass and his right hand guitar. Add a looper to the fun and Bill can seamlessly sample his grooves on the fly to add extra layers of dimension and solos.
Bill's musical development began at age five when he was introduced to the piano. At age seven he switched to violin after being mesmerized by a soloist performing Hungarian folk tunes. By thirteen he picked up the bass and was performing in professional R&B groups. He continued to develop on bass, playing in Jazz bands while experimenting with two hand tapping ala Michael Manring/Michael Hedges. He worked out of PA, FL, DC and NYC as a session and touring player and while in NYC began to study sitar. Finally, at the urging of his wife Jennifer, he purchased an 8-string Warr guitar - the instrument that allows Bill to fulfill the demands of his musical explorations.
Bill has toured extensively across the US, has composed and produced three cds with a fourth on the way and has recorded for numerous artists. He is constantly working to promote his music to an ever-growing audience of devotees. He continues to be a featured artist of Warr Guitars.
