Billie Jo Jones is a Texas Country Artist who seamlessly blends traditional and modern country styles. Billie Jo recently released the title track to her upcoming album, Flame. Flame is the handiwork of Billie Jo Jones, Bobby E. Boyd, Leonard Sniegowski, and Tammy Marler. Flame was produced by Kent Wells. Flame is a fantastic song to kick off the summer, featuring a sassy 90s country style. It tells the story of a woman trying to get her man's attention, but instead, she captures the attention of the man's wife, who is not amused.
"I can tell that you think
You're gonna take my man
You think your grass is greener
But let me help you understand
I can see right through your demon ways
I put that ring on his left hand
You're a master of deception
A champion of lies
You won't catch him looking around
He stays lost in my eyes
If you want to push this thing
Can cut you down to size"
Billie Jo and I had an in-depth conversation recently about her life growing up, her last ten years of touring, and her journey to fulfill her music dreams. Billie Jo has an incredible story that demonstrates how one can overcome difficult circumstances in a positive environment.. Billie Jo's mother battled drug addiction, leading her father to place Billie Jo in the care of his parents for her upbringing. Her grandparents raised Billie Jo and supported her musical aspirations. Billie Jo began performing mini shows for her grandparents as a child, singing 90s country songs by Shania Twain, Trisha Yearwood, and the Dixie Chicks. The encouragement that Billie Jo received provided her with the confidence and drive to begin her career as a singer-songwriter. She stated that her grandparents' support has helped her through the ups and downs she has faced. Billie Jo talked about how her father taught her how to play the guitar and how those special moments left her with great memories. Billie Jo Jones has been performing for the last ten years and sharing the stage with artists like Shenandoah, Diamond Rio, Neal McCoy, and Deanna Carter. Billie Jo said she enjoys opening for bigger artists so that she can showcase herself and gain some instant fans.
Thank you, Billie Jo, for such a great introduction to your music and stories.
