Just recently stumbled onto this Video and I'm Hooked.. Probably watched this same video at least 50 times over by now.. Looking forward to finding more great music by Doyle Bramhall II
Stumbled on this video of DB II and so glad I did. He has been around for a while but has grown on me leaps and bounds. Unbelievable how much he resembles his dad. Read a great bio on DB II and how he grew up and in the music world. Hope to see him soon in concert. Wish I could have sat in on this as well.
Has a unique personality that comes through his touch on his guitar strings, I’ve been a fan since he was in the arch angels in the nineties. blues player through and through . Great voice like his dad had.
This guy is pretty amazing.. I just saw Jimmy Vaughan on Oct.3 ( Stevie Ray's birthday) and then saw Doyle 6 days later.. Talked to both of them and didn't even think to mention it.. D'Oh!
hes godamn huge guitarist very unique playing amazing were how can he hold the pick and play with fingers its very hard to do i tried but i swear to much to do it i like him very much nice type of a guy
Wooderson jimi actually didn’t use backwards stringing style he played righty guitars just made to play lefty but strung the guitar the traditional way:
really really like his music ...lyrics and notes...and SOUNDS...good god...only persons slide i like more or equal to duane. Or ry..but his style.. Texas ..horses and music.. the best
Wooderson, Jimi played a righty guitar strung for lefty. He could play upside down, but 99% of the time it was strung for left-handed playing. Doyle plays his guitars strung for right-handed playing but he plays lefty, hence upside down. The late great Albert King also played this way. Strangely enuff, Doyle is actually right-handed... he just plays lefty. I know this bcuz Doyle himself told me so personally.
When Doyle began playing, he began playing lefty because it just seemed "correct" to him. He told me it was akin to a right-handed batter holding the bat with right hand over left... it felt natural to have his right hand on the neck & left over the body, as one would hold a bat. Also, growing up, he was surrounded by guitars but they were all strung for right-handed playing. So, lefty playing, heavy string on the bottom.

He's one of my faves...can't wait for the new album, Rich Man, to drop!!
thanks dude, it's amazing how much "news" I get from youtube comments more than anywhere else
So good... It's wonderful to see him playing like that and talking about music, influences, funny moments and stuff... Very interesting...
So , my vote is that HE is one of the greatest living... RIP SRV and Jimi... Your legacy lives on...

I Like his awesome guitar style. saw him in Toronto when he was with the Arc Angels.
I look forward to the day he tours again.

SRV, Clapton, Pink Floyd etc. don't ask you to play with them for no good reason... Best Blues Guitarist today IMO ;-)

He’s so right…You can be the best guitar player in the world, but it’s all about the songs.
Saw him with Clapton. He's wonderful at what he does. I've only seen Jimi use the strung backwards style.
Wooderson jimi actually didn’t use backwards stringing style he played righty guitars just made to play lefty but strung the guitar the traditional way:
Jimi Hendrix was left handed but the guitar was strung normally, not upside down. Check any video of Jimi
Great camaraderie there.Landreth as well ,brings out the almost buried fire in Eric.
His picking style is so different!
Check out the album he did with Richie Kotzen "Break It All Down". Blues with a modern twist, very cool.
Doyle é meu ídolo!!
total legend!
really really like his music ...lyrics and notes...and SOUNDS...good god...only persons slide i like more or equal to duane. Or ry..but his style.. Texas ..horses and music.. the best
New Doyle album needed, am I right?
i love him....way to much buzz and fuzz.
How does he play the guitar with the strings upside down like that? is it still tuend the same way?
4:43 What a great Hendrix-like sound. I wonder what effect he's using in this.
+Agtronic Its an Octavia octave fuzz!
+pleximanic Ok thanks!
Awesome

+screenpuller Doyle says on this video that he's left-handed.
Rene is one lucky lady..
Part one and two?
wait, when did the fabulous thunderbirds ever play in front of a 100,000 people??
He said it was a music festival so there were probably many other bands playing besides TFT.
View nr. 10.000!
way cool
Steps to become a great guitar player; step 1, Shave Chest.
dougray scott plays guitar!
what year is this?
the most sensical "guitarist" alive
Check comfortably numb with Roger waters class
I don't get why not just switch the strings? I guess he would have to relearn so not worth it?

screenpuller So if he was surrounded by guitars he must have known that left handed strung guitars existed. I guess then implicitly he didn't care?
It was simply a matter of convenience, why go out & get another guitar when you have them all around already.
screenpuller At this point I don't think it matters.
***** because it takes ten years to relearn completely. and then you get confused and will start messin up on stage.
cheer up audience. It must be hard to play in front of them. WOW! If your mouth was open, ok. But 😊
Amazing player, but his sound sucks.
