Songs to amuse people who think

Bill Shipper is a master of wordplay and wit, inviting audiences of all ages into a warm, joyful whirlwind of songs, laughter, and irresistible sing‑along refrains.


Rooted in a Memphis background, Bill’s folk‑bluesy sound blends rich acoustic guitar with lively harmonica and ukulele for a truly captivating vibe.
 

With clever originals like “Tears on My Spreadsheet,” “My Lover Loves Liver,” and “Don't Make Me Eat Quinoa,” Bill turns any event into a uniquely memorable experience.

Bill didn’t just perform — he turned my two-year-old’s birthday into a full-on mini concert! He entertained the adults, got the kids laughing (and singing), and even gave them quick harmonica lessons. The kids were obsessed with his fun originals like ‘Picking Blueberries’ and ‘There’s a Spider in the Corner’ — it was like a sing-along birthday party wrapped in giggles!”

Tom Lehrer has a kindred spirit in Bill Shipper…. he keeps the jokes short and fast, and the album is put together very well musically. Dirty Data is good for a chuckle… nice to be reminded of the lighter side of capitalism.”
