He has performed with & recorded artists including The Brubeck-LaVerne Trio, The Ed Shaughnessy Quintet, Peter Tork, James Lee Stanley, The North Carolina Shakespeare Festival, The Hot Club Quartet, Sarah Siskind, NPR, Chris Murrell, Claude Frank, The Vienna String Quartet, Craig Smith, Wood & Steel, JJ Blue & the Tokyo String Quartet along with many others.

From Bil: This album celebrates many types of music. My intent is to remove boundaries & combine styles in order to create new sounds & textures. I also consider the studio itself to be a musical instrument, & studio pioneers such as George Martin & Jimi Hendrix are a great influence. Thanks for listening!
