Guitariste et chanteur spécialiste de la Gibson 335, Travis
Wammack est né en Novembre 1946 à Walnut (Mississippi).
A guitarist,
singer, and young instrumental genius from Memphis who cut his first record at
the tender age of twelve, Travis Wammack is one of the great unheralded
guitarists of rock & roll. A contemporary of Lonnie
Mack, Wammack was simply the fastest guitar player in a town bursting at the
seams with great guitarists. By the time he was 17, he appeared on the national
charts with "Scratchy," a speed-burner instrumental featuring incredible
distortion and dazzling technique. Several incredible singles followed, but none
charted. By the late '60s, Wammack had moved into session work at the FAME
Studios in Muscle Shoals, AL, playing on countless hits. He continues recording
and touring to the present day (recently working as musical director for Little
Richard), his hot and speedy guitar chops intact.
