Guitar Shorty
Guitar Shorty (born
David William Kearney, September 8, 1934 [1][2] in Houston, Texas,
United States) is an American blues guitarist, singer and
songwriter. He is well known for his explosive guitar style and wild
stage antics. Billboard magazine said, "his galvanizing guitar work
defines modern, top-of-the-line blues-rock. His vocals remain as
forceful as ever. Righteous shuffles...blistering, sinuous guitar
solos."[3] Credited with influencing both Jimi Hendrix and Buddy
Guy, Guitar Shorty has been recording and touring since the 1950s
