Although most of my music is based on my life in Texas, I like to spend the summers along the NW coast.
Many of my songs were inspired by this part of the country.
I started performing around San Antonio Texas at the age of 14. By the age of 17, I was playing the clubs with a band called United. That was 1968. By 1971 I became a partner in Back Stage Sound Company. We were one of the first portable sound companies in Texas. Our clients included bands like Rush, Ted Nugent, and The Sex Pistols to name a few. We also worked with Texas country music legends like Willie Nelson, Ray Charles and many many more. In 1978 I moved to Corpus Christi where I started my second sound company. This time no partners. I ran that company until I retired in 2016. Since then, I have reverted back to my roots by writing 60+ songs and recording five albums. Two songs have won awards at local songwriting contests. I am currently working on album number six. If you would like to listen to my albums, they are posted at Reverb Nation.
I know things are kind of goofy right now but, it won't last for ever. Go to http://www.reverbnation.com/thewilliemellonband and listen to some good original Texas country music. If you any comments you can email me at wm@wmellonmusic.com.
