Bill Abernathy
Music has always been a part of life for father and son musicians Bill and Chad Abernathy. Bill began writing music in his early teens. He wrote and sang through most of his school years, before taking a break to get married, raise a family and build his business career.
Despite the fact that his dad had put his guitar aside for awhile, Son Chad Abernathy took up in his father’s musical footsteps. “For as long as I can remember, I’ve been writing music,” Chad says on his website. “A pen, pad, and guitar have been my living journal.” Both of the Abernathy children were athletes, so at least for the time being, the family priority was on school and athletics.

With both children grown and through school, Bill finally had the opportunity to return to the guitar. Chad would eventually retire from professional baseball, and he too took up the guitar and returned to the one thing he truly loved in life, writing and playing music. Both have performed live and have each recorded an album. They recently appeared on KC Cafe Radio’s showcase stage at the Folk Alliance International Conference in Kansas City, Missouri (coverage here).
Bill and Chad Abernathy will also be the featured performers in the next KC Cafe Radio House Concert, on Saturday, April 26 from 6 to 8PM, at Cyd’s Fair Trade Arts & Antiques in Parkville, Missouri.
