Blackjack Billy!




Blackjack Billy performed at the inaugural event at taste of country music fest at Hunter Mountain NY. (2013) Blackjack Billy is a Country Rock band composed of Rob Blackledge (vocals, guitar), Noll Billings (vocals), Jeff Coplan (electric guitar), and Brad Cummings (drums). Based in Nashville, they describe their music as “Redneck Rock.” Rob is from Mississippi, Noll from Missouri, Jeff from Canada, and Brad from Tennessee started the group in 2009 writing songs. In 2012 Brad Cummings was added who was the drummer for Randy Houser. These four men now make up the Blackjack Billy!


TOC Music fest taking by yours truly :)
These 4 guys tore up the stage at TOC music fest. Lead singer Rob Blackledge had moves like jagger and owned the stage! There first song (Above) released in 2013 hit the charts running with "Booze Cruise." Although the video above was not taking at the TOC fest it was similar to the amount of energy and fun this group has on stage.

My favorite song that they performed at TOC music fest was called "Blood, Sweat, and Beer" (BELOW). The beat just makes me want to move!

If your looking for some fun high energy performance this is the group to see! There schedule for 2015 doesn't bring them close to upstate NY, infact they are only in NY one time inVarysburg, NY which is about 3.5 hours away from Chenango County NY.  Check there schedule below:
