    Singer, Songwriter, guitarist Samuel Tyrone Cotton grew up in Louisville, Kentucky. His Grandfather’s rough, beautifully arresting singing grabbed the young Tyrone’s full attention. His grandfather was a baptist preacher. He sang with a near illegal charm. He cast a spell. There was always music around. Cotton’s mother loved gospel and R&B, and his first concert experience was BB King, who thrilled and captivated the youngster with his playing and his tale weaving.

     

    Cotton took up the guitar at 13, and it became a point of focus. By 15 he was playing in garage bands. He began to realize that the music within him was making him feel emotions that he could share and communicate with others. Music became his vehicle of expression.

    Tyrone has recently opened for the Legendary Blind Boys of Alabama, Jolie Holland, and Grammy nominated artist James Hunter.

    "After opening for Rahn Burton, former pianist for jazz legend Rasahn Roland Kirk, Burton said “Tyrone can play his music anywhere in the world. If it were not true I would not say it.”




    "After a Louisville performance, Beat-legend Lawrence Ferlinghetti approached Cotton to tell him, “You’re the real thing.”




    "From Louisville, KY Tyrone Cotton is a quintessentially American artist, exhileratingly real, steeped in the blues and mixing folk, gospel, jazz, and pop to make American music which has been compared to Tom Waits, Dylan, Ray LaMontagne, and Johnny Cash" ...CD Baby
