TJ Norton (TJ) became addicted to the blues
after finding a cassette tape of Lightnin Hopkins and learned to
play harmonica by ear, via listening to recordings and sitting
with more experienced musicians, just like the old blues
players. He left home at age 16, moving to London, and was in
the USA by the time he was 18. He has been schooled by the
streets and has many tales to tell. TJ has played with, and for,
many great artists in the UK, Europe and the USA. He plays like
a man possessed, with the ability to switch from a beautiful
gentle phrase, to full bore fat tone highly energetic musical
attacks, in an instant. TJ doesnt just play music, he lives and
literally breathes music! |
