About Anson Funderburgh
Artist Biography
Dallas-based guitarist Anson Funderburgh has taken his band the Rockets out of the clubs and onto the festival stages with his critically acclaimed recordings for the Black Top label out of New Orleans. With Jackson, MS native Sam Myers delivering the vocals and harmonica treatments, this band mixes up a powerful gumbo of Texas jump blues and Delta blues that can't be found anywhere else. Funderburgh formed the Rockets in 1978, but didn't meet Myers until 1982. Funderburgh recorded with the Fabulous Thunderbirds on their Butt Rockin' album, and went solo in 1981, when the New Orleans-based Black Top released Talk to You by Hand, the label's first release. ~ Richard Skelly
