Artist description 2 Dollar Bill has been making music since he was knee high to a grasshopper. A collector of vinyl records, he has amassed a great repertoire of old songs from artists like the Mills Brothers, Leadbelly, Woodie Guthrie and many more.

He most often can be seen playing completely acoustic or with a single microphone set away from him.
