Big Bill Morganfield, the son of Muddy Waters, was born in Chicago in 1956, but was raised by his grandmother in Florida.  Many people may not know this, but Big Bill did not even pick up a guitar until after his father passed away in 1983.  He had been earning a living as a teacher, and taught himself to play.  It was only after years of apprenticeship that he released his first record in 1999.  And he has since earned a place in the spotlight in his own right, taking the Chicago blues and making it a part of him. 

Big Bill Morganfield’s latest, on Black Shuck Records, is Born Lover.
