Artists:Joe Purdy
From WWR
|
Born and raised in bluegrass country -- Fayetteville, Arkansas -- Purdy fast developed an appreciation for music. Listening to Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Buddy Holly, and pretty much anything playing on the oldies station. But it was a more contemporary artist that first truly impressed on Purdy the power of songwriting. When he was twelve, he got a hold of his father's record player and sitting in the player was James Taylor's Sweet Baby James LP. Purdy was sold, and very quickly became partial to someone who could effectively paint a picture with words. Purdy picked up a guitar not long after. This is where the bluegrass came in. Purdy started listening to old Tony Rice and Doc Watson records and would sit on the front porch with his father as the two of them would work on their flatpicking skills and quietly pretend to be bluegrass pickin stars. read more.
