Keyboards / Vocals

Bill is an original founder member and an unforgettable face of the "Rubettes" from the beginning. His infectious personality made him a firm favourite with fans everywhere and he has been a major influence on the band over the years.

Born in East London, Bill started out at age 14, playing guitar in his very first group "The Sneakers". With the advent of r&b music, every band wanted a keyboard player, so he switched to piano and organ in the late 60's/early 70's and never looked back. It turned out to be a wise move for Bill, who after playing in many bands of his own, went on to record and tour with many artists before becoming a "Rubette" when the band was formed in 1974.

During his retirement years, Bill joined Suzi Quatro's band, touring and playing on a number of worldwide hits, before re-joining the RUBETTES in 1982. With a great rock 'n' roll keyboard style and exceptionally soulful vocals, he has strongly featured in the Rubettes live performances for many, many years. He always manages to bring a high level of energy to each and every show and with endless enthusiasm, Bill never gives anything less than 100%!
