At age 16 living blues legend Guitar Shorty, aka David Kearney, joined Ray Charles' band. At the age of 17 he recorded with Willie Dixon and moved to New Orleans to play with Guitar Slim. He then fronted his own group and played with greats like T Bone Walker, Big Joe Turner and Little Richard. At age 19, Guitar Shorty joined Sam Cooke's band. His brother-in-law & friend Jimi Hendrix often watched Shorty play until his untimely death. In addition to touring the globe, Shorty also jams at local L.A. clubs with former members of the Eagles, Steely Dan, and his friend and fan Keb Mo.

David Kearney AKA Guitar Shorty: 9/8/1939- Award-winning Texas blues and blues rock musician who for the last 50+ years has been renowned for his ferocious fretwork and explosive stage presence. A professional performer by age 17, the young guitarist made his recording debut in 1957 with “You Don’t Treat Me Right” with producer Willie Dixon. Following a stint with both Ray Charles and Guitar Slim (the latter of whom greatly influenced his showmanship), Shorty dove into his lengthy, although rocky, musical career. Following a triumphant return with 1991′s My Way or the Highway, he has since become an iconic figure in the world of blues.
