I have such a sentimental history with Guitar legend Kenny Wayne Shepherd who I have been interviewing for three decades.
Kenny is a blues revivalist, who delivered the blues to new generations of listeners when his debut "Ledbetter Heights" dropped in the height of the grunge movement and broke down every barrier. In this episode Kenny deep dives into his debut album, which he has re-recorded this past year with vocalist Noah Hunt (Corey Sterling was on the original) playing the album in it's entirety for the first time on tour, discusses his longevity in music, and tells a few stories too!
Don't miss the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band in concert. It's a moving experience! And get to know Kenny in this episode.
