        ill Bucher Jr. has been singing and playing music for decades since he covered keyboards and vocals in his high school garage rock band. Bill spend his childhood listening to record albums belonging to his father, a WWII veteran who came of age during the "Swing Era" and became a self-taught jazz pianist. Bill says he's "always had a thing for swing" because to him "it feels like home."

​

Bill’s versatile voice evokes the many styles and moods of the most popular male singers from the 40's, 50's and 60's, yet he also brings a fresh and deeply personal touch to everything he does. His performances combine skills and sensitivities derived from a lifetime of swing music appreciation and performing with pop groups, community bands and swing bands. 

​

Bill studied voice and performance with Darmon Meader, Kim Nazarian, Peter Eldridge and Lauren Kinhan, members of the The New York Voices, widely recognized to be one of the most accomplished vocal jazz groups in the world, and Greg Jasperse, composer, arranger, vocalist, pianist, and one of the leading figures in contemporary vocal jazz.
