BILL DAKE grew up in Valley Mills, Texas and started playing the lap steel at the ripe old age of 9. It was 6-string Supro lap steel and he got his first lessons from a traveling instructor that came to his school. All of Bill's hard work has payed off and you'll know why when you hear him play. He adds a great deal to the band with his tasty steel riffs and a powerful, pleasing voice. He played in various bands in the Killeen - Fort Hood area during the 70's and he has performed at more weddings than he can count. He enjoys performing and his love of music comes through every time.
