Louisiana-born Kenny Wayne Shepherd grew up on the blues. From the age of seven he had a guitar in his hands and kept at it until five years later he was on stage with Jump Street Five blues group guitarist Bryan Lee. At 17, Kenny produced his first album, Ledbetter Heights, that sat at the Number 1 spot on Billboard’s chart for five months earning a Gold Certification. The album tracks were both hot and soulful, reflecting a love of rock ‘n’ roll and his deep appreciation for Chicago,Texas and Delta blues.
Blazing onto the charts during the 1990s, Kenny was considered a young prodigy with some talk of his filling the boots of the late great Stevie Ray Vaughan. Shepherd would soon enough earn four No. 1 blues album spots and a series of blues-rock hit singles. He gathered up a couple of Billboard Music Awards and later was recognized for his contributions to music in 1998 and 2001 by the Gibson Guitar Corporation when he was presented the prestigious Orville H. Gibson Guitar Award for Best Blues Guitarist.
Shepherd’s second album, Trouble Is (1997), showed more maturity with some solid tracks of punchy blues including “Blue on Black,” “Slow Ride” and "Somehow, Somwhere, Someway” that all tracked to #1 radio singles. “Blue on Black” was ranked as the top rock song of 1998 by Billboard, the Album Network and R&R, and the hit continues to be at the top of KWS downloads today. The album became Billboard’s Blues Album of the Year (1999) and the its title track garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance.
Like a shooting star, Shepherd’s career seemed to lose traction for a while, but only long enough for him to gather more experience and strength as an artist. Over the years, he’s toured or shared the stage with Aerosmith, Bob Dylan, the Eagles, the Rolling Stones, Van Halen, B.B. King, Les Paul, Peter Frampton, Tommy Emmanuel, Steve Miller, Steve Lukather, Derek Trucks and Herbie Hancock.
Today, Kenny Wayne Shepherd is recognized as a major force in blues music. His love of the blues tradition and blues guitarists prompted him to arrange a successful tour with fellow blues men such as Hubert Sumlin, Buddy Guy, and Pinetop Perkins. Shepherd also worked his way around the country to find "real deal" blues players, resulting in a new DVD called 10 Days Out - Blues From The Back Roads.
Martin Guitar Company issued its Kenny Wayne Shepherd Limited Edition Signature model JC-16KWS, a distinct jumbo model in dark blue to honor his 1998 hit "Blue On Black." We also anticipate a new Kenny Wayne Shepherd Signature Stratocaster to roll out of Fender soon.
