Fans of the Band "Sons of Bill" (Fans of Bill) Offering Money Back Guarantee for Entire Love & Logic Tour

Fan-Based, Budget-Free Effort Banking on Band's New CD and Live Shows to Capture New Fans

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Fans of Bill, a fan-based effort spearheaded by a NASCAR team owner and a PR agency president who are fans of the Charlottesville, Virginia-based Americana group Sons of Bill, is offering a money-back-guarantee for the band's entire Love & Logic Tour.

Carl Fochler, co-owner of the NASCAR #77 race team, introduced Derek Farley, his college roommate at West Virginia University and president of the award-winning public relations firm DFPR, to Sons of Bill several years ago. The duo agreed that the most recent CD and tour was something they wanted to support beyond just listening and going to the shows.

"We wanted to do something fun and spirited, yet serious, for this band that we both believe in," said Farley. "So we set up an account to offer a money guarantee and we plan to sit back and watch the checks collect dust as the band collects new fans."

"Our budget is zero because they are that good," said Fochler. "Unless you're tone deaf or allergic to fun, you are in for a great night of music with our favorite band."

Sons of Bill, whose current tour is in support of the band's fourth studio album Love & Logic, was at the top of Rolling Stone's Must-See Fall tours recently. In addition to being hailed by critics, the band is known for their incredible live shows, which feature 3 brothers: James, Sam and Abe Wilson, literally sons of Bill Wilson, an emeritus professor of theology and literature at the University of Virginia, as well as drummer Todd Wellons and bassist Seth Green.

In order to collect the money-back-guarantee, those attending Sons of Bill shows can mail their ticket stub to Fans of Bill (direct message @fansofbill on Twitter for address information) if they feel they did not get their money's worth and then some for a refund.

"I'm not planning on writing a single check this tour," finished Farley. "Not one."
