In this episode of the Vault Sessions, we visit with blues folk artist ‪@DavyKnowles‬ backstage at the Bigfoot Blues Festival in Tracy City, TN. Knowles discusses his lifelong goals, his guitar heroes ‪@MarkKnopfler‬ and Rory Gallagher, and how wanting to impress his friends shaped his electric guitar experience. Davy demonstrates guitar sorcery by weaving Celtic modes into blues standards. Knowles rocks one of our 1951‪@fender‬ Nocasters and a 1955 Citron Yellow Stratocaster.
