Singer/songwriter Bill Ricchini was born in Philadelphia, PA, on January 22, 1974. Though indie rock was his main interest when he began writing songs while attending college at La Salle University in Philadelphia, it was his parents' record collection -- the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Ronettes -- that would influence his debut album, Ordinary Time.
Ricchini initially got his start recording his songs on a four-track and sharing them with friends. Following college, he worked as a freelance music writer for the ~Philadelphia Weekly and ~Philadelphia Inquirer but quit in 2001 to focus on music full-time. He recorded Ordinary Time that year on his home computer at his south Philadelphia apartment.
