Our bold prediction: he won t stop until he reaches supernova status. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beginning a music career in metal, Billy transitioned seamlessly, bringing the same thrasher energy to his bluegrass performances. Before he was old enough to buy a drink, the guitarist was trading searing licks on stage with veteran mandolinist Don Julin.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A half dozen years later, his Americana roots haven t faded but his live performances have been infused with a dose of psychedelia. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, Billy is not the first legend to be born from traditional music, and he won t be the last. Jerry Garcia was a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ECelYHsKYLY\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">traditional bluegrass banjo player<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before he picked up a guitar. Bela Fleck started with a lesson book written by Pete Seeger and eventually branched out to the Flecktones and even African world music. Beck played delta blues on busses for tips as a high school dropout, and we all know where he ended up. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Billy Strings will end up among the pantheon of greats like Jerry, Bela, and Beck, and we here at COT will follow him through the entire journey. We can t wait to see and hear the progression! <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Catch him on the rise and, thanks to Billy Strings endorsement of CashorTrade, catch him for face value.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#embracetheface #billystrings <\/span><\/p><p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A98OkrCx5hA?si=VKfW4-8bgwsVaRbQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p><center><\/center><p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo by Sam Watson, courtesy of Billy Strings. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billy Strings endorses CashorTrade as his OFFICIAL secondary ticketing resource. <\/p>\n<p>Photography by Sam Watson. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5726,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[29],"class_list":["post-281","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-partnerships","tag-done"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Billy Strings - CashorTrade<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/cashortrade.org\/about\/partnerships\/billy-strings\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Billy Strings\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Billy Strings endorses CashorTrade as his OFFICIAL secondary ticketing resource.
