Eric Gales biography

Blues guitar phenom Eric Gales was born and raised in Memphis, learning to play at age four from older brothers Eugene and Manuel in imitation of their upside-down, left-handed style (a tradition actually passed down from their grandfather, Dempsey Garrett Sr., who was known to jam with the likes of Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf). Winning his first blues contest at 11, four years later Eric signed to Elektra to issue his 1991 debut LP, recorded with Eugene on bass; Picture of a Thousand Faces followed in 1993. Manuel (who previously performed under the alias Little Jimmy King) reunited with his siblings for 1995's Left Hand Band, credited to the Gales Brothers. 2011 Transformation 2010 Relentless 2009 Layin' Down the Blues (compilation) 2008 The Story of My Life 2007 Psychedelic Underground 2006 Crystal Vision 2001 That's What I Am 1995 Left Hand Brand 1993 Picture of a Thousand Faces 1993 Eric Gales 1991 The Eric Gales Band
