Timeline

1958

William Alexander Galison (born February 19, 1958) is an American harmonica player.

Galison was born and raised in New York City.

As a child, he started to study piano, but at the age of eight he decided to switch to guitar, having been inspired by the Beatles.

He developed a love of jazz in high school and attended Berklee College of Music in Boston.

He decided to change to the harmonica because "I was one of a million guitarists at Berklee" and it was easy to carry around.

He was Berklee's only harmonica player.

He toured extensively in Europe with Billy Leadbelly (Bill Gough from Hatfield UK).

Among his role models at the time were Toots Thielemans and Stevie Wonder.

1982

After Berklee, he studied at Wesleyan University, then returned to New York City in 1982.

He performed at various New York venues, including The Village Gate, The Blue Note and the Lone Star Cafe with jazz musicians Jaco Pastorius and Jaki Byard.

He also played with his own group at Preacher's Cafe in Greenwich Village.

Galison has worked with Carly Simon, Sting, Barbra Streisand, Peggy Lee, Chaka Khan, Steve Tyrell, and Astrud Gilberto.

He performed Gordon Jacob's "Suite for Harmonica and Orchestra" and toured the US in the Broadway musical Big River.

He has recorded soundtracks for films, including Academy Award nominees The Untouchables and Bagdad Café.

His harmonica is also heard on the Sesame Street theme ("a great honor") and commercials.

Other television work includes Oz and Saturday Night Live.

One of his major influences and role models, Toots Thielemans, once described him as "the most original and individual of the new generation of harmonica players".

2002

In 2002, Galison met jazz singer and guitarist Madeleine Peyroux in a bar in Greenwich Village.

They started to play music together and eventually moved in together.

2003

By the end of the year Peyroux had moved out and the couple had broken up, but they continued playing together and recorded a seven-song CD called Got You on My Mind in February 2003.

Peyroux's contract with Rounder Records prohibited her from selling the Got You on My Mind recording, and she stopped performing with Galison.

Galison continued to sell the recording and claimed that he was owed payment for canceled performances.

After threatened legal action from Peyroux's lawyer, Galison sued Peyroux, the lawyer, and Rounder.
