ABOUT US
Having performed at over 150
different venues with nearly 1000 shows under their
belt, the name 'Bill Parton Trio' rings familiar to
many ears. Bill Parton Trio is a 3-piece originals
outfit originally from Adelaide, South Australia.
The members of the band include William Parton (Lead
Vocals & Keyboard), Jeremy Martin (Bass & Backing
Vocals) and Andrew Partington (Drums, Percussion &
Backing Vocals). While there is no clear genre that
could possibly define their original music, it can
best be described as a fusion of Funk, Soul, Lounge
& Soft Rock.Throughout the course of their many years on the
Australian live music circuit, Bill Parton Trio has
been regularly engaged to perform at Gala Dinners,
Balls, Cocktail Nights, Cooperate Functions, Pubs,
Clubs, Bars, Wineries, Private Parties, Product
Launches, Festivals and MANY
Weddings!
Despite being an originals band at
heart, Bill Parton Trio following in the footsteps
of many other great established original bands has
and continues to earn a crust and make ends meet by
means of performing covers.
Underlying the success of Bill
Parton Trio is a number of differentiating factors.
Firstly, their wide range of repertoire and genres
as well as their diverse musical ability enables
them to cater for any kind of environment from an
intimate cocktail setting to a raging party with a
jam-packed dance floor! Secondly, Bill Parton Trio
puts a strong emphasis on professional client
management and adapting in accordance with the
respective format of each different engagement to
ensure optimal value for money. Finally,
endeavouring to achieve a sense of ultimate customer
satisfaction, Bill Parton Trio firmly embraces the
philosophy that their service more than just about
merely showcasing their art and music but rather
about looking to provide live entertainment in a way
that best accommodates the needs of the client. |

HISTORY
Early origins of Bill Parton Trio
trace back to 2001 at Brighton Secondary School
(SA). Then and there William and Andy first met each
other through the special interest music scholarship
programs that they were both undertaking at the
time. That year, they plus some other scholars in
their year level formed a 7-piece Dixieland band in
which William played the Banjo funny enough! Due to
various complications the Dixieland band soon
dispersed. Consequential to the Dixieland band
dissolving was the formation of a smaller 3-piece
instrumental Piano trio featuring William on Piano
and Andrew on Drums.At the
time, the repertoire mainly revolved around a mix of
traditional and mainstream jazz as well as a little
bit of funk and latin. That being said, the band at
the time hardly performed and mostly just jammed.
It was this Piano trio that
overtime drastically evolved to become 'Bill Parton
Trio' as we know it today. |
