Psycho Billy Cadillac is the premier band for Redneck Rock n’ Roll based out of the Illinois Valley.  Redneck Rock n’ Roll is Southern Rock & Country that has been tweaked a bit with some Hard Rock, and Classic Rock.  The result is what we’ve coined “Redneck Rock n’ Roll”.  People of all sorts of walks of life enjoy the sounds of Psycho Billy Cadillac.

The band started with Tony, Kirk, Jeff, & Dean kicking things around.  After a little bit, we decided to add a vocalist to the line up that's where Dan came in.  We’ve grown a lot since our humble beginning.  The band members are experienced professional musicians that enjoy what we do and have a good time doing it.  Each member has a considerable amount of experience in the local music industry and has his own stories to tell.

We've played at a lot of venues; fairs, bars, fund raisers, benefits, local village events and block parties, rockin’ the stage everywhere we go.  Enclosed in the promotional packet you received is a CD that contains sample cuts of the original songs recorded by Psycho Billy Cadillac and 1 song that we have purchased recording rights to “Amos Moses”.  The music provides a little bit for everyone; from the rocking song “Whiskey Drinkin’ Wishful Thinkin’” to the touching acoustical song “Wouldn’t That Be Nice”.  All of the originals were written by PBC guitarist, Kirk Pavlick.

 Honoring our troops who have been killed protecting freedom in the Middle East while serving in the US Military.  The event was the 2006 Freedom Run.

We were one of the bands that were able to ROCK the thousands of folks that participated in the event.  The headliner - Jackel - notice their drums behind Tony in the picture to the left.

 Our first show (above) was a fund raiser for "Friends Of Dalton".  It was held in Leonore, IL on a night that would have the ducks lookin' for shelter.  It was so shitty that our sound - rightfully - decided to pack it in.  It was a rotten night to do an outside gig notice the plastic that folks tried to put up - the wind ripped right through it.  It was spittin' ice cold rain, wind was just a blowin' away.  We went back to our practice cave and grabbed what equipment we could and ROCKED the night out!
