Biography
My name is A.C. Hill. I am a songwriter, singer/entertainer, and acoustic, bass, and electric guitarist. Music has been a very big part of my life for the past 5 years, and the songs I write often reflect the emotions I feel, with family, home, love, and many other entities to which I can put a melody with. What has probably most influenced me in music was having a granddaddy that played and recorded with the famous Hank Snow. Granddaddy always wanted me to play the guitar, and until 5 years ago, I just had no interest. But once I picked up an acoustic guitar, I literally haven?t put it down since. I added singing, writing my own songs, and started playing some bass and electric as well. I started doing some side jobs like playing at a bar in our local hometown, and opening at the Lincoln Theatre in Raleigh, NC. In addition, I bought some recording equipment and decided to put some of my music down on CD?s. I have been pleased with it. However, I refuse to write a bio with a statement that says my music is good, my songwriting is awesome, or that I believe I am talented. I will simply leave that to your judgment once you have heard my work. I will say, however, that no one has the love of music anymore than I do and the sincerity of lyrics that are true to heart and the seriousness to always do my best in the music industry. It is with that dedication that I write, play, sing, and record all my music, and just hope that someday, someone will recognize that special quality in it that sets it apart from other music.
