Review "Bill Solly's lyrics are metrically ingenious; his music is at once very knowing and bursting with exuberant innocence." -- Irving Wardle, The Times (London)"Bill Solly's songs are clever enough to invite rip-roaring comic performances." -- Stephen Holden, New York Times About the Artist BILL SOLLY has been coming up with songs and musicals since he started out in Canada many years ago writing for stars like Robert Goulet.
