Guitarist/songwriter Brad Vickers learned on the job playing, recording, and touring with America’s blues and roots masters: Pinetop Perkins, Jimmy Rogers, Hubert Sumlin, Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry, Odetta, Sleepy LaBeef, and Rosco Gordon—to name only a few. As bass player for Little Mike & The Tornadoes, Brad cut his teeth backing up these elder statesmen, many of whom called on him to work and record with them over the years. Brad had the good fortune to play on Pinetop Perkins’ Grammy-nominated discs, “Born in the Delta” (Telarc), and “Ladies’ Man” (MC Records).
Now Brad’s own group, The Vestapolitans, offers a good-time, crowd-pleasing mix of Blues and great American Roots ‘n’ Roll. Their 4th CD, “Great Day In The Morning”, was released this past spring. All four recordings have met with terrific reviews, “Best Of…” lists, and great radio play. Most important, audiences love them!
