Latin At Heart's Billy Wilson April 27, 2020

Today, we lost a beloved member of the Austin music scene. Billy Wilson from Latin At Heart lost his battle with cancer. My heart goes out to his family and close friends. If you knew Billy, you knew he was driven to make things happen for Latin At Heart and he was an extremely supportive music fan. Billy finally got to record one of his songs with a producer in a studio like he had always wanted. His song, "We Ran To" produced by my dear friend, Darin Murphy came out a couple of weeks ago and got some spins on the radio. That was Billy's dream. I'm glad he got to realize it. Rest in peace, Billy. You'll be missed. Please enjoy our conversation from April 27, 2020

Hello and welcome to How Did I Get Here? From The Vault! Today we go back to episode 414 for an amazing conversation with legendary artist, Joe King Carrasco originally released on September, 15, 2015! Below are my original notes form the show.
