notes
Bill Dempsey began his career as a trombonist studying classical music and jazz. During the early 60's he became interested in folk music. At one point he was playing trombone in a small orchestra and working weekends in a jazz band. After finishing work he would rush off to sing and play at a local coffeehouse. It soon became clear that singing and playing guitar was what he wanted to do. Over the years Bill has continued to learn new instruments and new kinds of music while staying close to the folk and traditional music he loves.
Some know Bill as the Shanty man on the brig Pilgrim in Dana Point California. Bill books the Tall Ships Festival at the Ocean Institute there. Others recall him as part of the groups 'Open All Night' or 'Monday Night Waltz'. Seniors know him as 'Banjo Bill'. Students know him as Mr. Dempsey the music teacher and los ninos call him Maestro.
