Billy, one of the founder members of the acclaimed Welsh rockers, left in 2014, shortly before the band released their top-10 debut album.
A year later he started his own band, Billy Bibby & The Wry Smiles, and has been steadily performing, recording and building the fanbase ever since.
While Billy is proud to have been part of Catfish and their platinum-selling debut album The Balcony, his music is taking on a different direction as he fronts a project showcasing his own songwriting.

A spokesman said: “Billy’s expressive voice surprises and delights the listener with its flawless, timeless, and effortless qualities.”
