Billy Dean and Dawn are one of the most versatile musical groups today. They can easily perform the high energy nightclub dance music, as well as the laid back jazz standards preferred at many of Southwest Florida’s prominent country clubs, and then turn around and mesmerize crowds with their Broadway and classical repertoire.
Audiences find Dawn’s ability to blend her classical training (CENTENARY COLLEGE -B.A. VOCAL PERFORMANCE and graduate studies in voice at the Cincinnati – College Conservatory Of Music) and popular style, impressive, to say the least. With her 3 octave range, she makes it possible to emulate artists like Sarah Brightman, Linda Eder, and Karen Carpenter to Mariah Carey and Cher.
Although Billy is the more reserved half of the duo, his talent is certainly not. His piano playing, keyboard arrangements, saxophone solos and vocal ability provide the perfect combination of artistry.

DISCO PARTY MUSIC

Billy was the keyboard player for the house band for these four honeymoon resorts. Dawn was “chick singer” #13 to perform at CAESARS in 18 months. During the slow winter season, the 5 piece band split into a trio and duo to cover 2 of the 4 resorts. Billy always had to work with the girl singer.
We moved to Billy’s home state of MN and joined the in-house theater company at KNOTT‘S CAMP SNOOPY, in THE MALL of AMERICA. We performed kid’s shows, melodrama dinner shows, beer garden & other convention venues while we were "working on" building our BILLY DEAN and DAWN duo.. After the most creative wedding proposal, (CLICK PIC ▶️) we got married in OCTOBER 1993, then started out on the road as a full-time duo.

We were the houseband at the SHORE LOUNGE
February 1996 - September 1997.
The owner also owned the newspapers so we got LOTS of publicity. "The Macarena" was the hottest dance that summer.
Golfers know this is the course with the world's famous FLOATING GREEN.
(It was 1st golf course Dawn ever played.....but she never hit the green. 😞)

We visited family & friends in Naples, FL and KNEW this is where we wanted to live! We got the chance to perform at the RITZ CARLTON newly renovated nightclub in OCTOBER 1997, the iconic WITCH'S BREW......and finally the country clubs.

Thanks to dearest friends REED & SANDY HALVORSEN, we worked out a deal to perform at EAGLE CREEK on our day off for a round of golf & dinner. Sunday night crowds went from 20 people to over 200! Management invited us back the following season ......and said they'd ACTUALLY pay us. That's how we found our niche taking the music to the country clubs. It also benefitted MANY of our musician friends as well.

So grateful for 2 more summer seasons as the houseband at THE GRAND GENEVA. Living in the old PLAYBOY BUNNY dorms while our home in Estero was being built. We are FOREVER THANKFUL!

For 25 years, Dawn & Billy Dean
Feel blessed by Jesus to be in the SWFL music scene.
From country club dances, private parties, concerts or churches,
Thousands have heard the music & poems of the talented BIRCHES.
Many of whom have become dearest friends,
Whom we love seeing again & again!
To those we've not had the pleasure to meet,
Consider us for your event to complete.
Performing many vast genre song styles,
Our paramount goal is satisfied smiles.
So before the next season has come & gone,
See a performance with "BILLY DEAN & DAWN."
