Doors - 7:30pm 

Billy Fuller is best known as the founding member, song writer and bass player in the band Beak>. For the last 16 years he and his bandmates Geoff Barrow, Will Young (and before that Matt Williams) have released 4 albums, many standalone singles, EP’s and soundtracks with Fuller’s bass always the initiating force in their compositions, lending Beak> its signature sound as always being built from the bass guitar. On Beak>’s last album (>>>>), Fuller also got more involved with the lyric writing on the album.
But aside from that, Fuller has been a participant on many other different projects along the way. He began his 17-year tenure as Robert Plant’s bassist in 2003 and has subsequently been a co-writer on 3 of Robert Plant’s albums - Mighty Rearranger, Lullaby The Ceaseless Roar and Carry Fire.
In 2010 Fuller was the bass player on Massive Attack’s Heligoland album, with his bass driving the lead song ‘Paradise Circus’ among many others on that album. Walking into the studio, all he found was a drum beat to play to, and the song was built off one of several basslines he improvised that day.
Fuller has also played on 4 of Baxter Dury’s albums, Happy Soup, Prince of Tears (playing the bass anthem ‘Miami’), I Thought I Was Better Than You and 2025’s Allbarone.
Other notable acts who Fuller has played bass for are Alicia Keys, Billy Nomates, Rachid Taha, Anika, Lucrecia Dalt, Tottenham Hotspur FC (!) and many others.
