Bill Jones (musician) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Bill Jones (musician)
Bill Jones (Born Belinda Jones in Staffordshire, England) is an English folk singer/songwriter. == Early life == Born in Staffordshire, she grew up with music around the house; her father played fiddle in a ceilidh band and accompanied Morris dancers, while her part-Indian mother was a huge Buddy Holly fan, singing his songs as she did the housework. Jones herself proved to be a precocious musical talent, as she began classical piano and flute lessons while still young and also playing traditional music with her father. At the age of 11, Jones went to a boarding school that specialized in music, with the intention of becoming a classical pianist. She remained there five years before dithering about qualifications that would get her into university. But after a year and a half of an arts degree at Middlesex University, she dropped out, ending up at London's City University on a course that included plenty of ethnomusicological study, all the while playing in rock bands, one of which, the Wide Wound, brought her to playing accordion. For her college undergraduate thesis, she performed folk songs and put together a Morris dance side, then moved to the North East of England teaching and preparing a solo act.
