Biography
:: Tale of The Killbilly 5’ers.
In mid 2008 Billy Juan Cent, a former metalhead started to repetedly attack the prominent singer Billy Thoola with ideas of forming some kind of a band. After being annoyed just about a couple of times to many, Billy Thoola sent a textmessage containing the simple, yet powerful lines “We should mix country, southern rock & death. How ‘bout that?”. Boom, and like that the band was formed.
A couple of nights later, at some kind of freebee party for all the not-really-has-been's-cuz-they-were-never-in-people in the town of Växjö, Billy Toola's girlfriend (they are not related) came up with the brilliant idea for a name that ended up as “The Killbilly 5’ers”. They are, after all, Swedish hillbillys. All of a sudden a problem occurred. The two needed 3 more members to the name. A couple of beers later the search for the infamous three could begin.
After finding the additional members… or… well… after finding out who they wanted to join, Billy Toola came up with some brilliant lyrics. These lines of lyrics inspired Billy Juan Cent to put down some of the finest country-metal riffs ever recorded.
Now that some songs was actually written, it was just a matter of time before Billy Tree, Billy Force & Billy Five-0 heard the ideas and joined up.
Now, sit yer ass down on the porch. Pour some moonshine in dat ‘ol can of yer’s. Tune in The Killbilly 5’ers from time to time and enjoy the show!
