Sounds Like
SOUNDS LIKE A NEW GENERATION OF THE MUSIC WE ALL GREW UP LISTENING TO. SOUTHERN ROCK, BLUES, FUNK, AND SOUL!
MY NAME IS TOMMY AKERS, I AM 29 YEARS OLD AND I WILL PLAY THE BLUES FOR YOU! BORN IN MEMPHIS TENNESSEE IN 1977, I AM THE SON OF A RAILROAD MAN. GREW UP FORCED TO LISTEN TO BLUE GRASS, BUT SNEEKIN' MY BLUES WHEN I COULD! I HAVE TWO BROTHERS WHO ARE ALSO MUSICIANS. I JUST FINISHED STUDIO WORK ON MY FIRST C. D. AT CINDERELLA SOUND IN NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE. THIS HISTORIC STUDIO HAS PLAYED GUEST TO BOB DYLAN, WAYLON JENNINGS, CHARLIE DANIELS, AND THE STEVE MILLER BAND JUST TO NAME A FEW. MY ORIGINAL MUSIC IS A MIX OF ALL MY INFLUENCES' FROM ROBERT JOHNSON TO THE ALLMAN BROTHERS AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN. I HAVE A C.D. THAT WAS RELEASED THIS YEAR, AND YOU CAN GET ONE AT ANY SHOW OR JUST BY LETTING ME KNOW YOU ARE INTERESTED!
Hey Tommy! Thanks for doing The Budweiser Music Highway with Wes and me. We loved your music and look forward to having you back real soon. Keep on rockin'...but most of all...keep the Blues alive!
