| | Billy Martin (musician) |
| | Billy Martin (born June 15, 1981) is the guitarist for rock band Good Charlotte. | | | Born in Napptown, Maryland, Martin has been playing guitar from a young age, in 6th grade, he received his first guitar for Christmas, and ever since has been playing in bands. | | | (Billy's full name is William Martin Joel, so it wasn't much of a pseudonym.) Anyway, the experience gave him material for the title track to the Piano Man album. |

| | Billy Martin and Socket: January 14 & 15 2005, Live at Tonic - PopMatters Music Review |
| | In "MMW", Martin is essentially a pop musician, if not the funkiest, hippest and most N'Awlins-y awesome pop drummer you've ever heard. | | | Martin indulges his taste in squealing, bubbling, tongue-talking, headache music. | | | But this present assemblage of musicians does not give the listener much comfort in its instrumentation or arrangements. |

| | Pop Politics With Billy Bragg |
| | The connection between Billy Bragg's musical growth, re-evaluation of politics, and last four records is the clear attempt to understand the concept of identity. | | | Rightfully so, the most a musician should hope to accomplish is change a few minds, which is what happened to Billy Bragg in 1978 at the historic Rock Against Racism concert in England. | | | Credited as the first political event Bragg took part in, the event was a catalyst in politicizing punk as well as Bragg. |

Although Billy admits that most of the outside submissions have been difficult to listen to, at least one stand-out track will find it's way onto the next record. | | | On it's own, the record is far more a tool for DJs to borrow from, tinker with, and build upon than something intended for individual musical consumption. | | | The record itself, which borrows its name from Steve Cannon's book of the same title, is a pile of breakbeat percussion studies done solo by Martin. |
