Kenny Wayne Shepherd - Hendrix Tribute, Washington 12-02-2000


Kenny Wayne Shepherd (Kenny Wayne Brobst, Jr) (born June 12, 1977) is an American Blues musician. Shepherd was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, where he attended Caddo Magnet High School. Self-taught, he began playing at age 7, learning Muddy Waters licks from his father's record collection. At the age of 13, he was invited onstage by the New Orleans bluesman Bryan Lee. After proving his abilities, he decided on music as a career.

Using his own contacts in the record business, Shepherd's father and manager helped his son land a major-label record deal with Giant Records. His father, Ken Brobst Sr., had been a long-time Shreveport radio personality as "Ken Shepherd"; "Shepherd" had been the last name of his ex-wife, the mother of Kenny Wayne. Because his father already had established contacts within the recording and promotions industry as "Shepherd", Kenny Wayne adopted it as his stage name as well.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd has sold millions of albums worldwide, with two Grammy nominations, three straight No. 1 blues albums, a string of No. 1 mainstream rock singles and two Billboard Music Awards. He was also awarded the 1998 and 2001 Orville H. Gibson Awards for Best Blues Guitarist.

He married Hannah Gibson (eldest child of Mel Gibson) on September 16, 2006.
