Bill Stewart

Bill Stewart is a highly accomplished musician and sound engineer with a lifelong passion for creating the perfect tone. He has been a staple of the Huntsville music scene since the 1970s, playing multiple shows per day across a wide range of genres. Bill's early years were spent playing drums in his father's weekend band before transitioning to guitar and quickly gaining experience as a stage guitarist at Deerhurst Resort and in the popular country band Loose Boots. His skills and reputation led to a stint as a bandmate of legendary rockabilly celebrity Ronnie Hawkins, touring Europe in the process.

In the 1980s, Bill briefly left music to work in the oil fields of Northern Alberta before returning to music and refining his craft on the road. He settled in Huntsville in the 1990s and began teaching and repairing guitars, while continuing to perform as a sideman and in local bands. A deep dive into jazz chord repertoire during his accreditation program at Humber College opened up new avenues for Bill's income, and he went on to thrive as an integral member of the popular bluegrass band HoneyGrass, blending blues, jazz, and country into their uplifting and silky approach to traditional bluegrass.

Bill's expertise in live sound engineering eventually led him to build a venue designed to deliver the highest possible sound quality. Launched in June 2022, About Live Music at 60 Ontario Street, Unit 1, Burk's Falls, Ontario has become a popular destination for music lovers across the region. The comfortable, wood-panelled setting is conducive to intimate and personalized concerts, with many artists appreciating the chance to perform in such an acoustically optimized space. Bill's dedication to capturing the true heart and soul of music is evident in every aspect of About Live Music, and he beams with pride as he shows visitors around the venue.
