Austin Singer Songwriter Bill Godfrey allows himself to go under the influence on his haunting new EP “Hypnotized.”
The EP is a 5-track exploration of how the mind seeks influence, leading to all manner of trouble. Each track is a captivating musical journey of self-discovery exploring themes of fear, grief, co-dependence, substances, dogma, and malice.
Bill Godfrey‘s unique signature sound couples Indie Pop and Folk with Electronica, Soul and Indie Rock. However, his approach is born from classic inspiration. Bill grew up in rural Texas and started playing music at a young age. Godfrey’s use of interactivity adds a transformative layer to his musical compositions, captivating and delighting audiences.
I love this entire album because the 5-track exploration is perfect for enjoying music.
“The Kerrville Folk Festival was a big part of my early exposure to playing and singing. It’s a 3 week long camp out in which friends bring instruments and play music together. Only acoustic instruments are allowed. I learned a ton of songs and was exposed to artists like Townes Van Zandt, Rodney Crowell, Guy Clark, Blaze Foley, James Taylor, Carol King and John Prine.”
Bill Godfrey is an American musician, multi-instrumentalist, composer, performer, and technologist from Austin, Texas. Godfrey’s musical style combines elements of folk and blues with electronic, resulting in a dynamic genre-defying sound that pushes the boundaries of traditional styles.
