We're super excited to bring you Billy Failing this week as our guest on No Simple Road. Billy is an incredible banjo player, guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He's best known as the hard hittin' banjo player in the Billy Strings band and his own side project The Billiy Failing Band. With the meteoric rise in success we've witnessed of Billy and his bandmates we're honored and excited that Billy took a few to sit down and chop things up with us here on the show.

We talk with Billy about how the rapid rise to fame carries with it its responsibilities and how that has affected him, if he feels a responsibility to keep innovating, how he met Billy Strings and joined the band, why he chose the banjo out of all the instruments out there, how life's twists and turns always keep us guessing as to where we will end up, how the Recent 'Renewal' festival went and his thoughts on it, what the future has in store for him and the band, and a whole lot more!
