Hi There. My name is William Barnard or better known to my friend's in the UK as 'Billy from Ireland'
I live near to Moy in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland with my lovely wife Lila.
I am an Enthusiastic Yamaha Keyboard player with a Tyros 2 Keyboard. I have been playing for most of my life and played for 25 years playing the Saxophone with my Swing Band called ''The Skyliners'' in Northern Ireland and have performed on Organ's and Accordians also. I am a Member of a Yamaha Enthusiast's Website and Forum known as Yamaha Keyboard Kapers where I have some very good friends...
Above is a picture of my lovely wife of more that 50 years, Lila and your's truly!

Musical Memories

days where we 'Won' a Dance Band Competition in 1959, where has the
time gone? For sure it was a great thrill....although we were the only
Band to turn up! Ha Ha! No just Joking there....... Some very ''Stiff'' Competition! |
