It all began in Southern California where Bill Stonehouse was born. By the age of 7 he was convinced that he could do the same thing he he saw young Wayne Newton doing. “I was singing everything from Elvis to the Beach Boys – whatever was on the radio, I sang it.” As a teen, he worked at Dino’s Italian Inn in Pasadena where he was often asked to sing songs by Jerry Vale, Al Martino and MarioLanza. Later he went on to proudly serve eight years in the U.S. military, stationed primarily at Ft Bragg, NC. A classically trained vocalist, Bill studied opera under Seniors Primo Puccinelli and Francesco Sorignello. As a high C baritone, Bill’s voice can span 4 octaves. The intensity and range of his voice are just amazing.His forte is as a Big Band crooner. “I was definitely influenced by the Vegas scene… Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, the whole Big Band sound.” A complete musician, Bill has played several instruments including piano and the guitar, which he learned by ear, as well as the drums and harmonica. His best instrument, however, has proven to be his voice.
