The Santa Barbara Blues Society

presents

Louisiana born, Texas raised, guitarist Phillip Walker first big gig came in 1953 when at the age of 16 he was hired by Zydeco king Clifton Chenier, a post he held for three-and-a-half years. Phillip replaced Jimi Hendrix in Little Richard's band, backed up R&B greats Etta James and Lowell Fulsom as well as recorded with legendary songwriter Percy Mayfield. Phillip has recorded for Playboy, Hightone, Black Top & Alligator to name a few. Robert Cray had a hit with one of his songs Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark.

"Philip Walker has been one of the major influences on my career" ROBERT CRAY, ROLLING STONE
