A. Lee Edwards w/ Billie Feather & The Hallway Waltz

A. Lee Edwards has spent over 30 years crafting songs that blend rich storytelling with the sounds of classic country, folk, and rock. A longtime fixture in the Americana world, he first gained recognition with Lou Ford and The Loudermilks before stepping into his solo career. His debut album, Interpreting Heart Sounds Vol. I, recorded at Asheville’s Echo Mountain and mixed by legendary producer John Wood (Nick Drake, Fairport Convention), has drawn praise from Glide Magazine, Americana Highways, and The Bluegrass Situation. With a voice that carries both warmth and grit, Edwards delivers songs that feel timeless—honest, heartfelt, and deeply human.

“In a fair world, Interpreting Heart Sounds will help get A. Lee Edwards not only listened to, but recognized and respected. In a just world, they’d see him revered.” – Glide Magazine

“An authentic Americana sound that brings to mind the Flying Burrito Brothers or the Dillards, had each been fronted by Townes Van Zandt.” – Goldmine Magazine

Billie Feather and the Hallway Waltz is the musical home of guitarist, songwriter, and storyteller Billie Feather, a genre-blurring artist whose songs sway between Appalachian ballads, dreamy waltzes, and sharp-witted indie folk. Rooted in the traditions of American music and shaped by years of classical and jazz training, Billie’s songwriting carries the weight of old souls and the sparkle of modern insight.

Joined by a rotating cast of trusted collaborators known collectively as The Hallway Waltz, Billie weaves together intimate performances that feel like paging through an old love letter — personal, textured, and full of unexpected turns. Their music is as much about quiet confessions as it is about musical curiosity — embracing folk, alt-country, and chamber-pop textures with equal parts tenderness and experimentation. 

Her songwriting can be heard through recordings with North Carolina based bands Hank, Pattie and The Current; The P-90’s; Professor Twang and the Honky Tonk Review; and John Howie Jr. and The Rosewood Bluff.

Whether performing solo or with her band, Billie  invites listeners into a world of honesty, grace, and a little bit of magic.
