Jimmy Bowskill - Greatest Blues Kid Since Kenny Wayne Shepherd
March 22nd, 2006
I was reading the Guitar Squad blog and came across a post on a new blues prodigy, Jimmy Bowskill. I can remember not a few years ago Kenny Wayne Shepherd was the blues kid everyone was talking about. It seems as thought Jimmy Bowskill at the ripe age of 16 might be the next KWS, and possibly the next SRV. For a 16 year old he has a very good handle on the guitar and a great sense of rhythm, which is important when playing the blues.
The self taught blues guitarist was nominated for the Juno Blues Album of the Year in 2005 and Favorite Blues Artist in both 2004 and 2005. If you visit his site at www.jimmybowskil.com there a few audio tracks you can listen to as well as 3 video clips. Jimmy Bowskill will be a guy to watch over the next few years.
