Chanteur Rockabilly et Country US né William Beau Burnette III, le 8
Mai 1953
à Memphis (Tennessee). Billy Burnette est le fils de
Dorsey Burnette et ancien membre du
groupe Fleetwood Mac.
Born May
8, 1953, in Memphis, Billy Burnette began his career as a country performer at
the tender age of seven. Due to his father
Dorsey's fame as a rockabilly star (not to mention his uncle
Johnny), Billy cut "Hey Daddy (I'm
Gonna Tell Santa on You)" for Dot Records with
Ricky Nelson's band in 1960. Billy
followed his recording debut with another session in 1964, and toured with
Brenda Lee soon after. He moved to Memphis
in 1969 to work as a guitarist and producer, and began his solo career three
years later with a self-titled album for Entrance Records.
Billy Burnette led his father's backing band during the '70s, while his
songwriting talent gradually came to the fore through covers by
Dolly Parton and Kin Vassy. Burnette
signed with Polydor in 1979, and recorded a second self-titled album. "What's a
Little Love Between Friends" was a modest chart entry that year. Between
Friends was released in 1980, and after Burnette signed with Columbia, he
issued his third eponymous album. Gimme You followed in 1981.
In 1985, Eddy Raven and
Ray Charles both charted Burnette songs,
and Burnette himself charted with "Ain't It Just Like Love" and "Try Me." The
action earned him honors as the ACM's Best New Male vocalist, but he dropped out
of country music for several years when Fleetwood Mac offered him a spot
replacing Lindsay Buckingham. He appeared on Fleetwood Mac's Greatest Hits
(1988) and Behind the Mask (1990), and toured with the band constantly.
Billy Burnette returned to country music in 1992 with a contract from Warner
Bros. and the charting single "Nothin' to Do (And All Night to Do It)." He moved
to Capricorn later that year, and released Coming Home. After a long
absence, Burnette resurfaced in the spring of 2000 with Are You with Me Baby,
followed by Memphis in Manhattan in 2006 and Bluegrass Elvises, Vol. 1,
a collaboration with fellow country crooner Shawn Camp, in 2007.
