Anthony Billups is a modern-day Renaissance man — a singer-songwriter, stand-up comic, muralist, and all-around creative workhorse who’s been making art and music professionally for over 20 years. He’s performed alongside legends like Jimmy Buffett, Luke Bryan, Edwin McCain, Steve Earle, and Luke Combs, hosted Whiskey Jam once (but played it over 100 times), and somehow became famous in Nashville without writing a hit song… yet. A former A&E reality star (“Crazy Hearts: Nashville”), founder of the East Nashville artspace The Building, and owner of Music City Murals (with 250+ murals painted across the U.S.), Billups is as known for his paintbrush as he is for his punchlines. His biggest flex? Helping raise over $500k for disability organizations nationwide in honor of his brother, Nick. Rob Snyder (hit songwriter and founder of Revival Nashville) once called him “one of the three best performers in Nashville.” We still don’t know who the other two are, but we’ll assume Aaron Raitiere made the cut. Oh, and Drake White used to borrow his van.
