Bio / Background
Billy Dechand's fourth CD, Hold On, mixes local Chapel Hill and New York attitudes. Recorded in both locations with musicians from both scenes, the CD blends indie rock, inventive pop, and rural roots with a warm vibe and vision. Guest musicians include Matt Schickele, Paul Whetstone, Jesse Richards, members of The Malarkies, My Dear Ella, Three Torches, SeepeopleS, Eyes to Space and Extreme Badasses.
Comparisons to records by Beck, Neil Young, Elliot Smith, Flaming Lips, XTC, The Beatles, Talking Heads, The Band, and Guided by Voices may be tempting, depending on the song:
Such Simple Love (2:37) Haunting wash of guitars set to a Thomas McGrath poem.
Beautiful (3:48) Catchy pop song with chunky rhythm guitars.
Sometimes Why (4:54) Plaintive, melodic, and melancholy appeal to ask why so many people have their heads up their asses.
Scratch That Itch (4:07) Swampy, upbeat tune with funky Rhodes and slide guitar.
