billy joel Biography

Billy Joel, the American singer-songwriter, pianist, musician and classical composer, was born on May 9, 1949 in The Bronx, NY. Since 1973 when he released “Piano Man,” his first hit single, Joel has become third top-selling solo artist and sixth top-selling recording artist in the U.S.

During the 1970s through 1990s, Joel had 33 U.S. Top 40 hits. All of the hit singles were songs that he wrote. Joel has been nominated for 23 Grammys and won 6 Grammy Awards. In 1992, he became a member of the Songwriter Hall of Fame and in 1999 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Except for “All My Life,” a 2007 single, Joel has stopped recording new material following the release of “River of Dreams” in 1993. However, he continues to tour.

Joel released “Cold Spring Harbor,” his debut solo album, in 1971. The popular hits “Everybody Loves You Now” and “She's Got a Way” appeared on the set. However they didn't receive a lot of attention until they were released on the 1981 album “Songs in the Attic” as live performances. Joel's latest studio album ”River of Dreams” was released in 1993. He has released a total of 11 studio albums in addition to a classical piano piece collection called “Fantasies & Delusions” in 2001.
