Cory Wilkins, singer, songwriter and guitarist, has a powerful, soulful voice and a unique guitar style drawn from his blues and rock roots.
Blind since birth, he has actively pursued music all his life as a self-taught drummer, guitarist, and songwriter who began his musical career at 14 years old, playing drums in New Hampshire clubs.
Since then, Wilkins relocated to Southern California where he recorded his most recent album San Diego Summer, assembled his current band, including his sister, Laura, on drums, and has been performing regularly at top venues throughout San Diego, Orange County, and L.A.
Wilkins has independently released four CD's, most recently San Diego Summer, which hit the shelves on August 30th, Turn Up The Band, plus the single Free, in 2004, and Brave the Rain, in 2000.
Wilkins has received accolades from representatives of Sony Records and Capitol Records; "This is a band that everybody needs to hear!", says Tom Long of Sony.
The San Diego Weekly Reader says "With a penchant for weighty lyricism, singer/songwriter Cory Wilkins does rock, country, pop, and blues ... behind the solid vocal performance are tight musicianship and catchy tunes."
Recently named one of San Diego's top 5 bands, Wilkins' high energy good old rock and roll shows have people taking notice!

LOL this is crazy! And it only works if you have Internet Explorer (I think). You have to go to www . retwistic . com (no spaces) and then after it loads you need to hit the back button or else the funny video won't come up. If that doesn't work then hit the forward button instead.
Hey there Cousin! Thought I would pop in to say hi and hope all is going well for you. I hope to be able to make it out to Cali someday and see you perform. Love your tunes man. ~Much Love~ Nina
