Buddy Guy
Buddy Guy Remove performer from this event
He's Chicago's blues king today, ruling his domain just as his idol and mentor Muddy Waters did before him. Yet there was a time, and not all that long ago either, when Buddy Guy couldn't even negotiate a decent record deal.
Hubert Sumlin
Hubert Sumlin Remove performer from this event
Quiet and extremely unassuming off the bandstand, Hubert Sumlin played a style of guitar incendiary enough to stand tall beside the immortal Howlin' Wolf. The Wolf was Sumlin's imposing mentor for more than two decades, and it proved a mutually beneficial relationship; Sumlin's twisting...
Eric Gales
Eric Gales Remove performer from this event
Blues guitar phenom Eric Gales was born and raised in Memphis, learning to play at age four from older brothers Eugene and Manuel in imitation of their upside-down, left-handed style (a tradition actually passed down from their grandfather, Dempsey Garrett, Sr.
Eric Johnson
Eric Johnson Remove performer from this event
Very few musical artists achieve a true signature style -- one which makes comparisons to other musicians impossible. But Texas guitarist Eric Johnson arguably comes as close to this echelon as any musician from the past quarter-century.
Kenny Wayne Shepherd
Kenny Wayne Shepherd Remove performer from this event
Kenny Wayne Shepherd and his group exploded on the scene in the mid-'90s and garnered huge amounts of radio airplay on commercial radio, which historically has not been a solid home for blues and blues-rock music, with the exception of Stevie Ray Vaughan in the mid-'80s.
Billy Cox

Noel Redding was the better-known of the two bassists who appeared alongside Jimi Hendrix during his brief recording career between 1967 and 1970 (due to the fact that he played on Hendrix's most acclaimed recordings), but Billy Cox had known and played alongside Hendrix longer.
Chris Layton

Mary Hudetz, Associated Press (11-13) 04:00 PST Portland, Ore. -- "Mitch Mitchell, drummer for the legendary Jimi Hendrix Experience of the 1960s and the group's last surviving member, was found dead in his hotel room early Wednesday.
Cesar Rosas
Cesar Rosas Remove performer from this event
Guitarist, singer, and songwriter Cesar Rosas is a key member of Los Lobos. While less prolific than the team of David Hidalgo and Louis Perez, his rootsy compositions, fiery guitar playing, and gritty vocals act as an important counterweight in the band's sonic blend.
Jonny Lang
Jonny Lang Remove performer from this event
Modern blues in the '90s had a weird phenomenon of teenage blues guitarists rocketing to popularity with their first album. The entire trend culminated with Jonny Lang, a guitarist from Fargo, North Dakota, who released his solo debut album Lie to Me when he was 15.
