Bill Rainey came out of the log “woods and cotton” country of Buena Vista in West Tennessee. As a small child, he loved the Grand Ole Opry but his father was unimpressed with his son’s unusual talent of being able to sing songs he heard the night before, word for word. Bill left home at age 13 and earned his keep by playing guitar and singing.\u00a0Life for this 13 year old was hard – playing music with whoever he could get on stage with. For 2 years, at ages 14 – 15, Bill worked with BOB HASTINGS, who had a large park outside of Granite City, IL on Hwy 111 – BOB HASTINGS HILLBILLY PARK. There he worked with some of the great legendary artists, such as, CAL SMITH, JUNE CARTER, BRENDA LEE, GRANDPA JONES, & many more stars.\u00a0<\/span>Bill decided to return to Tennessee, but struggled for recognition in Nashville, and wound up working at a cotton farm at Tiptonville, TN.\u00a0<\/span>Over the next year he sang and played on the weekends in keeping with his roots in music.\u00a0<\/span>He returned to Granite City working as a switchman for American Steel, then as a burner torch for General Steel. Throughout these years, he continued his pursuit of country music, performing and singing throughout IL & MO.<\/span>DICK CASTIN, manager of K-X-E-N (a 50,000 watt station) in St. Louis, then caught one of Bill’s Shows at Millstadt, IL. Bill was hired on as a DJ at K-X-E-N which started his career in radio broadcasting, and lasting for several years through the ’60’s and into the early ’70’s<\/span>Bill eventually returned to Nashville where he opened his publishing & booking company on 17th Avenue – TONY SCOTT BOOKING & THUNDER STORM PUBLISHING.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recent Years…<\/h2>\n

In recent years, he has become a DJ for NBRN.FM in Nashville, inducted into the “Southern Legend Entertainment and Performing Arts Hall of Fame”, rated the #1 DJ in the world, and inducted into “National Traditional Country Music Association”.<\/p>\n

As they say…\u00a0The Rest Is History….Below the History Continues…<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
