Bio
T Model is one Bad Man. Born around the summer solstice, probably 1920 or '21, no one knows for sure, not even T. He started playing guitar based on Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf influence, but T's only got one style: his own. T's illiterate, so no use in talking to him about tuning. We call it "open T" because it's his own unique sound. T-Model says he doesn't have a care in the world. I believe him. He's acting like he is willing to die on the road, playing music and doing what he loves. So be it if it happens. We all gotta go sometime. Don't you want to die with a smile on your face and a feeling of accomplishment up to and through that last breath? GravelRoad's been backing him on national and international tours since 2008. Check out this latest albums on ALIVE RECORDS: "The Ladies Man" (2010), and, "Taledragger" (2011), good stuff. <><><><><><><> I got to leave a little space right here to plug T-Model & GravelRoad's current booking agency: BUCKET CITY BOOKING, bucketcityagency@gmail.com <><><><><><><> Thank y'all kindly.

T-Model's 80-something years old ... his Mississippi Driver's License says he's 84, his US Passport says he's 87, and he says he's 88 ... so you decide. <><><><><><><> He started playing guitar based on Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, but T's only got one style: his own.
