BIO SUMMARY

Troy Turner, the Louisiana born singer and guitarist is often mistaken for BB King or Buddy Guy—not too shabby for a kid who grew up loving those two idols of his.

His new CD, “Whole Lotta Blues”, reveals that he’s got a little of both BB and Buddy in him—and then some. His reputation as “the real deal” is well deserved - witness the presence of an awesome cast of heavy weight support, including Hubert Sumlin, Howard Tate, Steve Cropper, Bonnie Bramlett and rockers Brian May (of Queen)and Simon Kirke (of Bad Company). Starting out as a child prodigy in Baton Rouge, guitarist Troy Turner has traveled the world playing the blues while escaping the attention that is often lavished on less-talented musicians. 

Troy Turner got his taste of the blues first-hand. The anguish you hear in every note he plays is not something he copped from somebody else’s style..
