Lowell Fulson

Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1921 Lowell Fulson’s fascination with guitar started when he heard Blind Lemon Jefferson and Blind Boy Fuller. Around the age of 12 he would sneak away with his uncle’s guitar, always making sure to return it in perfect order to hide the unauthorised loan. His first performances were at church but by his teens Lowell had flown the nest and hit the road with the Dan Wright String Band.

In 1944 he was drafted into the Army and posted to the Pacific island of Guam. Once discharged, Fulson landed himself a record deal in California and started making a name for himself with classics such as Three O’Clock Blues, and Everyday I Have The Blues.
