Treble Charger -
Bill Priddle was one of the first members of Treble Charger, along with Greig Nori, Rosie Martin and Morris Palter. Originally, the four of them called themselves "nc-17" (after the movie rating), until an American band of the same name had threatened to sue them, thus "Treble Charger" was born. However, they still called their first album nc-17. The group's first hit "Red" was written by Bill Priddle and was also re-recorded for their 1997 album Maybe It's Me. The second version seemed to be more of a success but wasn't posted as one due to the fact that their first album "nc-17" was also re-released that same year.

Bill Priddle was spotted without his glasses in 2001 and was never seen wearing them again. Maybe Its Me is Treble Chargers third album, released in July 29 of 1997. ...

In 2003, Bill Priddle left Treble Charger for good. He said that he left Treble Charger because punk rock "wasn't his style" and he claimed that he wanted to spend more time with his daughter. He officially left in September that year, earlier than expected due to the fact that Nori told him to. He also left due to the fact that it was Greig Nori who had started writing the songs ever since they became a punk rock band as Priddle had been the composer before when they used to be an indie rock group.
Don Vail Bill Priddle is now a part of an indie rock band, Don Vail, consisting of other members Mitch Bowden, Dave Dunham and Chris Bell (all ex-members of Chore).
