Info
Sidney & Matilda presents Billy Fuller at Sidney & Matilda on October 28th 2026, doors at 7:30pm.
Billy Fuller is best known as the founding member, songwriter 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 four albums, many standalone singles, EPs 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.
Aside from that, Fuller has been a participant on many other 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 three of Robert Plant’s albums: Mighty Rearranger, Lullaby and 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 four 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 acts who Fuller has played bass for are Alicia Keys, Billy Nomates, Rachid Taha, Anika, Lucrecia Dalt, Tottenham Hotspur FC and many others.
