The son of Bud Tyree (Tyree & CO.), The Travelin' Bluesman began his life-long journey with the blues as young child. Under the covers of his bed along with his transistor radio, his future with the blues was set forth. As he searched the radio dial for AM 600 (WTAC - Rock), the young bluesman had what he describes as a bone chilling experience when he stumbled across " I ain't superstitious" by Blues legend Howlin' Wolf. From that day forward the musical destiny of The Travelin' Bluesman was set forth.
