Subterranean Song Company

About

Bill Meehan

Music has always been at the heart of my life. From the moment I wrote my first song at 15, I’ve been drawn to the power of storytelling through melody and lyrics, exploring emotions and experiences that connect with listeners on a personal level. As a singer-songwriter, I strive to create songs that are both authentic and timeless, blending heartfelt vocals with intricate guitar work to bring each story to life.

Born and raised on Long Island, New York, my life has been shaped by a deep appreciation for community, family, and the rich musical traditions of the area. I have been married to my wonderful wife since 1980, and together we raised three children who continue to inspire and motivate me every day. I am also proud to be a grandfather to two granddaughters, whose curiosity and love of music remind me of why I fell in love with creating songs in the first place. My passion for music extends beyond performing.

I am also an avid vinyl collector. Each record I own tells its own story, capturing moments in time and the unique character of the artists who created them. Listening to music on vinyl, especially recordings made in mono, gives me a deeper appreciation for the textures, warmth, and depth of sound that digital formats often miss. This combination of songwriting and collecting has shaped the way I understand music: every note, chord, and lyric matters, and every record is a piece of musical history. Whether composing a new song, performing live, or curating a vinyl collection, I am constantly learning, experimenting, and striving to share the beauty of music in its truest form. For me, the guitar is more than an instrument it is a storyteller, a companion, and a bridge between the past and the present, allowing me to honor musical traditions while creating something uniquely my own. Every song I write reflects not only my experiences but also the love, family, and life that have surrounded me from childhood through today.
