A Tribute to Billy Joel with Billy Nation

Billy Nation delivers a high energy authentic concert experience celebrating the music of Billy Joel. Complete with Billy’s signature grand piano, growling saxophone, rich harmonies, and lots of audience engagement, Billy Nation captures Billy’s stylistic range with ease from anthems like ‘Piano Man’ to rocking songs like ‘You May Be Right’ to beautiful ballads like ‘Just the Way You Are.’ Billy Nation will make you feel like you are experiencing one of Billy Joel’s concerts in his prime, bringing back the magic of that one-of-a-kind era of music.

Since their formation in early 2020, Billy Nation has performed to rave reviews across the United States and Canada from their home base in San Diego, CA. Billy Nation aims to capture not only the music but also the look and the aesthetics of what makes Billy Joel such a special artist. This tribute act will make you feel like you are experiencing one of Billy Joel’s concerts in his prime, bringing back the magic of that one-of-a-kind era of music. Their infectious energy, musicianship, and how they engage the audience in the show are hallmarks that differentiate them from their peers.

Led by Adam Shapiro, who masterfully embodies the role of Billy Joel, this remarkable act is committed to delivering an unforgettable musical experience that pays homage to the legendary piano man. But Billy Nation is more than just a tribute band; it’s a heartfelt tribute to Shapiro’s late father, a gifted piano player from New York City. Each night Adam takes the stage, he carries his father’s musical legacy in his heart and channels that passion into his performances that leaves audiences wanting more.
