On this Damon Fowler interview, how he went from being a local sensation to opening for Jeff Beck - how this transformed his career… touring with Johnny Winter, Robin Trower, Dickey Betts, Buddy Guy & George Thorogood...why he chose to lead a band instead of being a sideman, dealing with the loss of his mother, his awesome guitars, becoming a father and how this changed him, Sunday BBQ's, not being in such a hurry, and more. Really cool vibe, great convo:
