El cantante, compositor, teclista y guitarrista Bill Champlin -nacido en Oakland, California, el 21 de mayo de 1947- es conocido sobre todo por ser el líder de los Sons of Champlin y por haber tocado con la banda Chicago (1981-2009). Empezó a tocar en grupos en el instituto y formó la banda The Opposite Six. Con el tiempo, la banda cambió su nombre por el de Sons of Champlin y se convirtió en una atracción en directo en la zona de la bahía. El grupo firmó un contrato con Capitol Records y publicó su primer álbum, The Sons, en 1969. Le siguió Loosen Up Naturally (1969). La reputación del grupo creció pero sus siguientes álbumes -incluidos Follow Your Heart (1971), Welcome to the Dance (1973), The Sons of Champlin (1975), A Circle Filled with Love (1976) y Living is Why (1977)- no tuvieron éxito comercial. Bill Champlin abandonó la banda y se trasladó a Los Ángeles, California. Empezó a trabajar en su álbum de debut en solitario y a realizar numerosos trabajos de sesión como cantante y músico. En 1978, año en que publicó su primer álbum en solitario, Single, fue invitado a unirse a Chicago tras la trágica muerte de su guitarrista Terry Kath. Bill Champlin rechazó inicialmente la oferta, pero en 1981 ya era miembro a tiempo completo de la banda. Se convirtió en una parte integral del grupo, debutando en el álbum Chicago 16. Con el lanzamiento de cada álbum, su presencia musical en el grupo siguió creciendo, especialmente cuando Peter Cetera abandonó el grupo en 1985. Cantó como vocalista en tres de los mayores éxitos de la banda en la década de 1980: " Hard Habit to Break" (1984), "Look Away" (1988) y "I Don't Wanna Live Without Your Love" (1988). Aparte de su trabajo en Sons of Champlin / Chicago, Bill Champlin fue un compositor de éxito, coautor de éxitos como "After the Love Has Gone" (Earth Wind & Fire) y "Turn Your Love Around" (George Benson). Bill Champlin y Chicago se separaron en 2009 y él continuó su carrera en solitario, además de volver a trabajar como Sons of Champlin. También ha continuado su trabajo de sesión y su exitosa carrera como compositor.
