Billy The Kid is a Canadian singer/songwriter who has collaborated with such artists as Garth Hudson (The Band/Bob Dylan), Randy Cooke (Ringo Starr/Dave Stewart) Stan Behrens (Willie Dixon/Ruth Brown/the Four Tops) and just recently, producer Jamie Candiloro. Candiloro is best known for his work with Ryan Adams, R.E.M. and Willie Nelson. Pettinger on the other hand, is best known for her creative crowd-sourcing campaigns. Her debut EP was produced with Raine Maida (P!nk/Our Lady Peace), but her first full length was funded entirely by fans. She traveled across the continent to play fundraisers, anniversaries, birthday parties and private concerts, as well as go camping, white water rafting and rock climbing with fans. The result was the appropriately titled album “Ours”. One year later, Pettinger was back at it again, with a new album ready to be recorded with her dream producer, Jamie Candiloro. Surprise bundles, birthday presents, and fan-requested cover songs helped fund this latest effort, recorded in LA and complete with a chance encounter with the Kid’s favourite songwriter, Ryan Adams. Billy the Kid’s songs have appeared in A&E’s Biography, Miami Ink, American Idol, My 600 LB Life, Gene Simmons’ The Family Jewels, Chelsea Settles, Sweet Home Alabama, 16 and Pregnant, Exes and Ohs, One Angry Juror, Alienated and Canada In The Rough. Most recently her music has been featured in the Showcase science fiction series Continuum and the movie Foreverland featuring Juliette Lewis.
