Bill Houston was born in Yellowknife, NT and grew up in Sioux Lookout Ontario
Bill's songwriting career began with the world's first official IMAX film, "North of Superior", produced in 1971 by celebrated Canadian filmmaker Graeme Ferguson, and featuring various localities and communities in Northwestern Ontario. Ferguson, of Thunder Bay ON, invented the IMAX system, first installed at Toronto’s Ontario Place in 1971. The film also featured Algoma Centra #69 by Stompin’ Tom Connors.

In 1903, a lone immigrant, haunted by a curse that he would “die in a shack” and driven (some say) by the unrequited love of a lady of high birth, came to the shores of White Otter Lake in Northwestern Ontario and began to build a large structure, 34x24, three stories high, surmounted by a tower,  using logs over 37ft long and weighing up to a tone each. The man’s name was Jimmy McQuat. As the years passed, this 5ft tall Scotsman single handedly raised his “castle” to the impressive height of 40ft. Since he kept to himself most of that time, the people of Northwestern Ontario came to know him only as The Hermit of White Otter Lake. In October of 1920 he died and was buried beside his castle. It still stands today as a monument to the strivings of one courageous man whose personal life will probably remain shrouded in mystery forever. He drowned while fishing on the lake. During WW1, he offered the place to the government as a convalescent home for returned soldiers

The band's first full-length album, Introducing the Beau Brummels, released in April 1965
Were included a 1965 episode of The Flintstones in which the band gave an animated performance as the Beau Brummelstones

Beau Brummels had taken their name from a term for an excessively well-dressed person. The group liked that the name sounded British, and knew that following the Beatles so closely in the alphabet would likely result in the bands' records being placed next to each other on record store shelves. The song has been criticized, however, for sounding too similar to The Byrds in regards to the harmonies and twelve-string guitar licks
