Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Globetrotter

Avi Salloway got his start co-fronting the Burlington-based folk duo Avi & Celia. Since that band’s breakup a few years ago, he’s traveled the globe, teaching in the Middle East and absorbing myriad worldly musical influences. All of which inform his new project, Billy Wylder, which fuses disparate styles, from worldbeat to art rock, with his Americana roots. Touring in support of “Vineyard,” the first single from the band’s forthcoming debut, Billy Wylder plays Signal Kitchen in Burlington, this Sunday, February 17, with support from Josh Panda and the Hot Damned.
