Bill Carrothers (born July 13, 1964[1]) is a jazz pianist and composer based in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.[2][3] He has cited Clifford Brown, Shirley Horn, and Oscar Peterson as influences on his development as a musician.[4][5] Carrothers performs without shoes to better feel the piano pedals, and sits in a chair rather than on a traditional piano bench in order to achieve his preferred seating height.[3][6]
