TRANSCRIPT
Blues and Rock Guitarist - Singer - Songwriter
This blues man is the real
deal from the true home of
the blues, southern
Louisiana. Troy was
mentored by the best and it
shows in his velvet voice
and wicked guitar playing.
He studied at Berklee in
Chicago but his true
teachers were his friends,
Stevie Ray Vaughan, Edgar
Winter, Buddy Guy, BB
King, the Rafel family, his
Uncle Ike Turner and many,
many more greats.
Blues and Rock Guitarist - Singer - Songwriter
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.
It comes from the pain of growing up next to poverty and abuse, being weaned on the
gospel music of your parents and knowing your only hope for redemption is your music. Troy Turner
‘Guitar Burner’ shines on the stage. The
speed of his fingers creates smoke.
When Troy steps on stage in his ‘Handful of
Aces’ hat, tailored suits, flashy belt buckles
and boots he is ready to wail on ‘Yellow,’ the guitar
Stevie Ray Vaughan gave him years ago.
Entertain he does.
